A visit to Google Android Lawn Statues in Mountain View, California was a lot of fun. One gets an opportunity to click several pics of these decent sized statues. Certainly worth visiting.

The statues are cute. The area is small and the day we went there was no problem with parking. The gift shop is also in the area so you could get Google merchandise. It does not take long to visit the area. Great area for pictures. If you are google fan, you will like it.

This is only a place to take photos, but it's great! It's a "garden" of statues made up of all the different Android operating systems since the beginning.

On our last day of our trip we decided to make some last minute stops Google headquarters being one, sad to say it was July 5 and all the offices and tourist store were closed. We were still able to walk the grounds and take silly pictures, would have loved to have seen it alive with all the google employees riding the Google bikes and full of life but something is better than nothing. My kids had a blast and that alone was worth it, if your in the area and have the time, stop by! Just make sure it's not on a holiday or on the weekend.

Well, "Don't go out of your way for it" is certainly good advice. I did, though; walked from Ames NASA visitor centre to Google to see the store (which you can now visit without having a Googler in tow. Woohoo!)
Note: on the way from the one to the other I walked past the Computer History Museum. You can actually do this half-loop, Ames to Computer History Museum to Google, if you don't mind crossing the freeway a dizzying number of times. If you do, then pay more attention than I did, and realise that the Computer History Museum is mostly closed until Wednesday. So don't do it on a Tuesday if you hope to see more than a couple of rooms of the Computer History Museum.
I had my own reasons for visiting this location, and I imagine most people would have lost interest before expending that much shoe leather. If that's you, drive straight here for five minutes or don't bother at all.
It's genuinely pretty cool of Google to provide something for world+dog to visit, and to make it far more reasonably priced than Dear Old Apple to boot (yes, expensive as the merchandise may be, it's still way cheaper than the iFruit version). And it's worth wandering around this way if you feel like an aimless little hike around Mountain View.

During our December visit, the statues were in a parking lot, roped off by police tape. Not quite the photo-op we had imagined (or seen pictured on so many Android websites). Marshmallow Andy was missing his marshmallow!
The Google Store nearby was pretty good though -- lots of products to choose from. There was also a visitor center (separate from the store), but we didn't have time to venture into that office and see what it was all about.
If going to view the statues, use "2041 Landings Dr, Mountain View, CA 94043" for your GPS, not "Googleplex". It's a good 10 minute walk from the Googleplex (which is squeezed for parking) and the actual location of the statues.You can also trying searching "Google Dessert Sculptures" to get the exact location you need to visit.

The garden collection itself is gone, the statues are now scattered about the Googleplex campus, so now it's more like a scavenger hunt to track them all down! It was fun to do on a Google bike

a magical and forgotten place.
Once the shining star 🌟 of google now worn and abandoned.
Still worthy a visit because of all the history...

Just like many of Google's once-loved products, the Android Garden has been abandoned and is no longer looked after. I went yesterday, expecting to find joyful figures that would make for a great photo shoot and had spent $25 one way in a Lyft to get there. Instead, I came across what looks more like an Android cemetery. Many of the figures had been vandalized. Some were missing arms. They were visibly rotting and none of it made me glad I was there. It reflected poorly in Google, but for a company that kills off pretty much everything they create, it was perfectly metaphorical.

Hi, daphna1. What would you like to know about this attraction?
Are there any tours of google campus with a guide? how to contact them?
Written March 28, 2018
No guides or tours are needed. The place is pretty small. You can drive to the postage stamp size site, park and take a few minutes to look. If you go on a weekend, parking is no problem.

Is it open on sundays? And what are the hours?
Written February 26, 2017
It's always accessible. It's outside near the parking lot. No gates or guards or anything. But after dark, you won't be able to see much of it.
Written February 26, 2017
How do I get in? Is it always open or only on work days?
Written November 27, 2016
They're out in the open, no problem when the visitor centre is closed.
