Zoro Butterfly Garden - San Diego, CA - Butterfly Gardens on Waymarking.com

Located in a sunken area beside the Fleet Museum and another building in San Diego's Balboa Park, this area is almost unchanged from the days when it was a nudist exhibit
The sign at the location indicates in part: "Zoro Garden is a Butterfly Garden with a colorful history that includes a 1935 nudist colony. The Garden was named after Queen Zorine, the lead actress in a pageant that was located in the sunken garden during the 1935 California Pacific International Exposition. A little down the canyon was Gold Gulch, a 1935 mining camp." The area definitely has plenty of butterflies..although it seemed the numbers of flowers were sparse. Nearby you can see some wall-consuming trees and a hiking trail. The poster of this waymark had been in this area many times before and had never noticed this garden until specifically looking for it.
