Chapel

Gardens
Several gardens are located throughout the Rady Children’s campus as places for patients, families and staff to relax. These include Carley’s Magical Gardens, located in the Hahn Pavilion, and Leichtag Family Healing Garden, located behind the Rose Pavilion.
Additionally there are three new gardens in the Acute Care Pavilion. On the ground level is a whimsical landscaped courtyard between the Rose and the Acute Care Pavilions. The 2nd Floor Garden offers clues which are hidden throughout the garden. The clues lead the children to 12 golden eggs of Marisa, the Magical Bird. At the south end of the 3rd floor, there is a terrace that provides beautiful views of downtown San Diego, Point Loma and, on clear days, the Coronado Islands.
The gardens are open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. They provide a fun and beautiful distraction for patients, and a place of comfort and peace for families.
