A Garden at the Edge of the World
A naturalist who shaped the park from the ground up
Walk through one of the most improbable parks ever built, an oasis coaxed out of barren sand dunes, ocean fog, and fierce obsession.
Your guide knew every plant by name, and he spent fifty years fighting to keep his wilderness entirely untamed. Match real-world plants to botanical illustrations and uncover the secret rivalries buried beneath the hedges. This park holds a century of hidden history, if you know where to look.

The Problem Was the Hill

Step back to the 1870s and let a voice from the era guide you through the steep grid. Match real-world industrial relics, decode hidden cable mechanics in the modern streets, and discover the obsessive mind who risked everything to tame the slopes.
