  You don't have to go far to make memories that will last a lifetime! Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park is located just 30 minutes from San Jose but feels like a world away. It's a magical wonderland where you can twirl in giant garlic bulbs, ride a vintage train through a redwood forest, soar through the sky on hot-air balloons, and paddle duck boats across a peaceful lake. In the summer, splash and play at Water Oasis and the new Lakeside Splash (opening summer 2023). And enjoy the natural beauty of over 10,000 trees (including the world-famous Circus Trees) and gorgeous gardens all around. https://www.gilroygardens.org/
