As winter temperatures fade, many look forward to spending more time outdoors. The Atlanta Botanical Garden is a timely destination that never gets old. Tucked away in Midtown Atlanta, it’s a green escape you didn’t know you needed. Adorned with the energy of spring, its vibrant flowers and lush greenery graciously celebrate a new season. From wonderful views, scenic spaces to walk, and unique gatherings, a visit shows why time on safe green spaces can benefit our health and wellness. With its garden guide for an overview of amenities to explore, here are three reasons to visit:
Escape the screens – the chance to dodge incessant headlines and notifications can’t be underestimated. Looking into the gorgeous landscape can dissipate the to-do list on your mind and provide a needed reset. The surroundings give a change of scenery that can spark good vibes and a positive outlook. As you walk through the garden, you’ll see visitors enjoying a moment of solitude or reconnecting with family and friends. The trip is also eased with convenient onsite parking and dining.
Enjoy the outdoors – whether it’s the forested backdrop, manicured gardens or orchid display house, every turn highlights a reason to explore this Atlanta treasure. The current orchid display is the perfect place to learn and capture a new nature inspired screen saver. Time in nature can remind us of the bliss to just be and bloom.
Get Out and Play – kids and your inner child can explore the Lou Glenn’s Children Garden. As you recover from cabin fever, it provides a wonderful space to get moving and enjoy the sunlight. The Atlanta Botanical Garden also has several events and exhibits to offer. Some programs include garden tours, tai chi, Tulips at Twilight, its signature Garden Party, and outdoor painting.
