Quick Summary:
Garden City is located on what was once an actual garden farmed by hundreds of Chinese immigrants. The location of the town along the banks of the Boise River was, and still it, ideal for farming. Today visitors to Garden City come to enjoy its rural atmosphere and a good selection of attractions. Water sport fanatics can enjoy canoeing and kayaking as well as white-water rafting at the Boise Whitewater Park. Fly fishermen can fish for trout right in the center of town and arts and crafts enthusiasts can follow the Artisans Pathway Map to discover a wealth of artists and crafters’ studios.
