Manito Park and Botanical Gardens, Botanical garden and urban park in South Hill, Spokane, United States.

Manito Park and Botanical Gardens is a 90-acre park with six gardens, a conservatory, two playgrounds, a baseball field, a splash pad, and a small food stand. The terrain climbs about 100 feet from north to south, creating areas known as upper and lower Manito. Exposed basalt, including small cliffs, appears throughout, and the park office is built of the rock.

Francis Cook bought 160 acres on the South Hill, named it Montrose for its wild roses and in 1886 held a fair at Mirror Lake, now Mirror Pond. After the Panic of 1893 ruined him, Jay P. Graves took over the land, renamed it Manito in 1903 from the Algonquian word manitou, and gave it to the city in exchange for water lines. A zoo ran from 1905 to 1932; an iron bar from the bear cages still juts from a rock.

The name Manito comes from the Algonquian word manitou, adopted in 1903 when Jay P. Graves took over Francis Cook's Montrose holdings. The Nishinomiya Japanese Garden honours Spokane's sister city in Japan: landscape architect Nagao Sakurai began the design in 1967, and after his death in 1973 Shosuke Nagai and Hirohiko Kawai finished it, opening the garden in 1974.

The main entrance is at 17th Avenue and Grand Boulevard, with a second parking area on Park Drive beside the Ferris Perennial Garden. Terrain climbs roughly 100 feet from north to south, so the northern duck pond and southern gardens sit at different levels. The park is open daily without charge, and the brick building near the pond serves drinks and snacks in summer.

Rose Hill, on the park's west side, holds about 1,500 rose bushes of more than 150 varieties and serves as an All-America Selections test garden, where new rose introductions are trialed before release.
