Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden
- Botanical garden
- Regional draw
- Long Beach
On the California State University, Long Beach campus, this Japanese garden offers a landscaped setting shaped by water, planting, and carefully composed views. It suits a slower visit focused on the garden's details rather than a long walk through open parkland.

Check current reservations and public access before travelling, since a university garden can also host private events. Consult the campus visitor information for parking and follow the garden's guidance while exploring its paths.
