Skip the main garden if you hate inclines; the switchbacks up to Grant Park are a serious leg workout. Go at golden hour for the best lighting over the Pacific. Spend two hours exploring the Mediterranean collection, then hike the trail to the top for the iconic white cross view. It gets dusty and hot by noon, so carry water. Parking at the base is free, but the incline definitely earns you a post-hike taco.
