Reviews
"Beautiful garden! Well worth a quick stop after visiting the zoo. It's quiet, peaceful, and the crowds didn't seem to follow us over. Great spot for a quiet break."
"Pretty small, but admission is included with Zoo admision so it's more than worth it to walk around for 30-45 minutes to take in the sights. The butterfly exhibit was pretty cool to see as well! Most of the outdoor flowers were either not blooming yet or seemingly dead, but the architecture is pretty cool and the indoor sections are awesome!"
"A wonderful visit! The flowers are starting to bloom beautifully, and the butterflies are a sight to see! I can't wait until they have the water features up and running."
"This is a really nice indoor and outdoor garden. We went after we went to the zoo and it was a nice way to wind down. The butterfly garden is really cool. The outdoor area is really awesome. It feels like an old fashioned British outdoor garden. You get in free with zoo tickets I think."
"Loved walking first through to see the butterflies and then the beautiful gardens! Every time I walk the gardens I notice something new! Definitely great to visit when the fountains are on and a great place for kids to visit. Love the gardens!! Make sure to be gentle with the butterflies, too."
