Cant really meditate anymore, its nice to see so many people come to see the awesome sculpture though.

Very peaceful little garden. There is a ramp for wheelchairs or strollers. Very unfortunate that many of the statutes are damaged.

A soul-stirring place of absolute peace and understanding. I highly recommend taking the time to visit the Garden of Gethsemane.

Though it’s unavoidable and normal with spots like this you run into homeless people setting up shop. Otherwise this is a nice peaceful serene place to come and reflect and gather your thoughts and look at the very cool sculptures as well. ️

It was really pretty but it needs some upkeep to the statues.

A very beautiful and moving little park. I wish it was being taken care of better, out of respect for the artist and the meaning behind these works.

This is where I go to find peace within myself.

A very spiritual place. Saddened that the park and statues arent maintained. Still beautiful for what it represents and the story behind it..

Even with all the traffic noise around you still find peace within the small garden.There is lots of shade and the lighting provides great depth to the already wonderful sculptures.Im not religious but I do like to admire places like these.

Smaller than I expected. But a very intimate feel to it. I almost cried when I saw that fingers of the statues last supper were broken or missing. Also I probably missed this but who maintains this ?

I love this park and Jesus too Im so glad people and the homeless have somewhere to go and reflect on there lives and the sacrifice Jesus made for all of us the feeling I got when I went into that park was overwhelming Im so glad I got to see that park

CraZy lookin but nice as well.

Quiet, well kept grounds. Easy to find on the side of the road.

As all the previous have said. Beautiful small area. Unfortunately, as previously pointed out, people have vandalized some of the statues.The trees provide a great shade which was really nice on a windy day.

As a public park, its only so-so. It has public restrooms, a childrens playground, and plenty of open grass areas, plus a good view of the Santa Cruz River. But the real draw is the Twelve Stations of the Cross, with lots of stonework and bass-relief images. A comforting place to relax and enjoy nature.

I love this area. It has an interesting story to why it is built. Its a ️ peaceful setting.

Really beautiful.

Statues were disfigured, trash, and homeless camped nearby. Figured it would be better preserved, but sadly, was not.

Very special place full of life

Where I got married atday was so beautiful. Has lots of great memories. Live & learn

Im a Buddhist, so the creepy Jesus statues didnt move me. The river smelled like like a methane well, and litter was everywhere.

Magical place near downtown area. Great little park near the garden and easy access to the Tucson Loop

Very nice place.

Interesting walk with religious statues. The walk is very short, but it is right next to the river walk, so you can walk farther if you want. Its a fun quick stop to see once, but I wouldnt come again.

A great place to be alone and explore. Good for families, because its right on the bike trail, and next to parks with playgrounds, bbq grills, picnic tables, bathroom, and grass area & walking trails.

Awesome to walk through a must see.

Hidden little gem along the santa Cruz river walk

Nice secluded.

Very beautiful odd statues in a quaint little park by the river. Lots of trees and benches nearby

A place to just take time out for being thankful.

In theory this park sounded cool but then I showed up and there was trash all along the outside. There were homeless and drug addicts alike loitering on the property. They were all huddled around a power outlet charging their phones and tablets. Homeless were coming and going from under the bridge in the wash just behind the property. 2/5 I would not pay the troll toll

So awesome, praise Jesus.

Beautiful place to mediate. I wish it had a budget for protection against vandals. Its a special place art creation done by a unique person who kept his promise.

Wonderful reverent place, kept up. To bad a vandal did some damage to Last Supper. Ample parking allows this to be the starting point of a bike trip or walk. Highly recommended. Be sure to read the plaque on the bust just inside gate for context.

Very peaceful and inspiring. Ive been there many times over the years and growing up here in Tucson.

Was really beautiful.o

This was and is an absolute perfect, quiet,peaceful time and place to reflect..Beautiful Sculptures...

Lived in Tucson my whole life and never knew that this place existed

I HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE GARDEN FOR YEARS & I CONSIDER IT MY CHURCH.... I LOVE IT THERE.... JESUS LEON ️️

Its small, but a nice quiet place to visit and reflect.

My mom used to take me and my brothers to this little monument and tell us the story about the homeless man they used to live here and it is a part of the Santa Cruz River in Tucson Arizona theres all kinds of stories about this monuments and the Santa Cruz River thats one.

This place is a good place to visit and reflect or just to take time to relax.

Beautiful park with lots of really interesting sculptures. I found out that you can reserve the park for weddings and other similar events was really nice and secluded although you can still hear the traffic nearby

Love this place especially during monsoon season when the Santa Cruz River is running just beautiful

Beautiful place to reflect and ponder

Always a quiet respite from the rest of the world.

Its historical here in Tucson many people make ceremonies in this location or just a nice visit

Not a big area but very beautiful. Needs some maintenance / repairs, but definitely worth going to see!

Quiet, peaceful and small, its a beautiful place to go and meditate or pray

My spot for prayer and meditation when I ride The Loop.

Amazing

Beautiful status its a must see. The picturesque are amazing must see and visit this beautiful place.

Priceless ️

Beautiful! I love to visit here, thank ther Lord that they restored the garden again...

This is a peaceful place within the city

Interesting place with cool community spend 30 minutes there waiting for a rock show to open neat statues and clean area fun bike paths and I found a dead snail

Its a nice venue for a small celebration. Not much room for seating. Its pretty clean, but some of the statues are damaged. Very small parking lot.

A beautiful quiet place

AWESOME HANGIN in the park with JC and his crewI took a LOT of pix - you should too

A religious monument of history is always fulfilling.

Visited after a s.s. apt..felt comforting..Thank you

Very beautiful place to relax and say a prayer

Love this park peaceful

Very quiet place of worship and one on one with the good Lord

Quiet

Needs to be landscaped on a regular basis and the lighting is substandard

It really needs more maintenance and upkeep. It looked really rundown, but the statues were cool. It did have a historical feel that was intriguing.

Amazing a must see

Very nice and helps brings out the insight to mediation of what our Lord did for us, on the cross. Great spiritual sanctuary.

These sculptures have been here for many years. Vandalism has not stripped the peaceful essence of this spiritual experience

Great place for peace & quiet & to pray

Its a beautiful religious place!

A religious and quirky Tucson classic.

It was cool to see but A LOT smaller than I thought.

So awesome that Tucson has a garden like this!!!

Needs repairs.& Clean up.& Water Plants.

Needed a place to turn around for fuel at QT...

It was nice but very small I would not make trip just for it.

Average service with average accommodations

A quick place to stop and pray. And to refresh my mind. When our Lord Jesus Christ walk opon this Earth. During the Romans Empire....

Beautiful peaceful place

I always feel at peace here

Shadey and quiet

This is a place special to my kids And iI miss your beautiful faces

This was well worth the detour especially when you read the history of the artist.

Its where I got married

Love this place

Beautiful place

A must see if youre visiting Tucson and even if youre not

I JUST GOT HOME FROM WALKING TO THE GARDEN OF GETHS,, TODAY ON CHRISTMAS TO PRAY & THE GARDEN WAS LOCKED?? WHATS UP?? IM THE ONE WHO REPLACE THE STATUE OF THE VIRGIN MARY BY BUYING ANOTHER STATUE & REPLACING IT IN THE GARDEN ABOUT A MONTH AGO CAUSE SOMEONE STOLE THE ONE THAT WAS THERE CHINO

Although this is a Religious park, it is a do not miss item for Tucson, the artist carved full sized statues of Jesus on the Cross, Mary and Child, and the Last Supper. The park has parking for about 10 vehicles, but usually only one or two will be there, and the walk into the park is easy, and there is a wheelchair and handicap ramp. Nicely maintained, it is unfortunate that in early April 2015 some nut-case decided to destroy some of the statues just for the fun of doing so. Thus, the park may be temporarily closed while repairs are made. For more info see SeniorCitizenLocalWebs review of the Garden of Gethsemane, it has great pictures of the park taken a week before the destruction.As you enter the park there are two brass placard and a bust of the artist, the history is on these, and worth reading.Expect to spend about 15 to 30 minutes, and then visit the A on A Mountain which is a short drive away. The A is on top of the mountain and provides a great view of the city of Tucson.

Very peaceful nice place to go by

Beautiful and peaceful. Too bad creeps have to distoy the statues.

Amazing history! Free and very accessible, interesting even to young visitors

Great ! Love it ! I Go visit every time I go to or thru Tucson ! Its now open again as of 7/23/2015 I first found it back in 1975 when I was stationed at Davis Monathan AFB there in Tucson . It wasnt developed back then !

Nice quiet and peaceful place to pray!!

Since I was a kid I been coming here praying to the gods.. now I take my son.

Very cool me and my girl and family love it
