Free; street parking
By Simir Shah
A city park across from Old Mission Santa Barbara with more than 1,500 rose bushes, big lawns for picnics and lawn games, and ruins of the Mission's old reservoir, aqueduct and tannery vats. It's run separately from the Mission, so it's free even if you skip the Mission tour.
