Amid the many places to see and things to do, the hustle and bustle of Long Beach is intoxicating and fun, but if you need a bit of a break, enjoy spending a little quiet time at the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden. This inviting garden attraction was dedicated in April of 1981 through the generosity of Mrs. Loraine Miller Collins in memory of her husband, Earl Burns Miller. Maintained in association with California State University Long Beach, the garden attracts several visitors who marvel at its lush landscape and colorful flowers.

The Dominguez Gap Trail is located in north Long Beach where the two side-channel wetlands parallel the Los Angeles River. Walking this recreation trail offers several stunning views, including the 30-acre east basin. The trail is somewhat difficult to access, and while walking any time of year is fine, the walk proves to be even more enjoyable during the wetter parts of the year.
