The Volunteer Park Conservatory is a welcome respite from the cold Seattle rain. It is open except on Mondays, even on holidays, from 10 to 4. The conservatory has 5 houses, each quite different. There are bromeliad, palm, fern, seasonal display & cactus houses. It is hard to say which is most interesting. The seasonal displays are changed 6 times each year. Plants are often replaced in all of the houses. I think Volunteer Park is the greatest park in Seattle. Not only is the park beautiful, but it has a number of first-rate attractions including the conservatory, the Seattle Asian Art Museum, Isamu Noguchi's Black Sun & the panoramic view from the Water Tower. The park is easily reached from Downtown Seattle by the 10 Capitol Hill bus, which stops at the park.
