I would recommend you make this a last or near last stop on the wine trail. Since ports are General ain't much sweeter then regular wines. Every port sampled was delicious and the staff was very accommodating and informative.

Shinzen Japanese Garden

The Shinzen Friendship Garden is a traditional northwestern American Japanese Garden. The Garden was constructed to honor Fresno’s Sister City, Kochi, Japan, celebrating the spirit of understanding and promoting educational and cultural awareness. The beauty, grace and serenity of Japanese design is present in the use of varied plant material, rocks and stones, and water throughout the five acre garden. The garden is designed around the four seasons of Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter; granite markers identify each section. In the Fall of 2015 we were proud to be chosen to house and display the world-class Clark Bonsai Collection, which is now on permanent display in the garden, offering a seasonal rotation of some of the finest Bonsai in the United States.

This is a wonderful Japanese garden located in the popular Woodward park. One can spend a couple hours admiring the landscaping and greenery in the garden. They even have some peacocks which children would love to watch. Visitors can really enjoy this place. There is an entrance ticket though. Also check the hours and days it is open to public before you go.

Meux Home Museum

This museum was once the home of a Civil War-era surgeon.

Reviewed By Ikomasan - Ikoma, Japan

This is Dr. Meux personal residence and office from the early days of Fresno. It has many period furnishings and utensils that were from that era. The best time is during special events like Christmas where it has original decorations. It is quite an amazing treasure that is often missed. Be sure to see it.

Fresno Art Museum

Reviewed By Pat S - New York City, New York

Lucky for us we stopped in on a family day. The exhibits were interesting -- they included ancient sculptures from Mexico, unique fiber art pieces and detailed fantasy drawings created with colored pencils. Families were able to create their own art, too. Materials were provided to make worry dolls, yarn designs, and images that used cards. This museum has something for everyone and is definitely a Fresno gem.
