This beautiful garden is so close by! Cole has been going here with her family for years. It's such a great spot for a Sunday afternoon picnic under a giant, gorgeous tree or alongside a pond full of ducklings! The gardens are pretty expansive and well kept. There are gazebos and great landscaping details everywhere! There are lots of places for quiet relaxation surrounded by the beauty of nature. There is a slight Asian feel to this place with some little Oriental-inspired buildings and bamboo forests. We happened to go the week between seasons of blooms, but we PROMISE it fills to the brim with vibrant blossoms. Also, it's a beautiful drive out there too! There are stunning trees lining all of the roads near Duke's campus.
Admission is free, but you will have to pay for parking. Located at Duke University, 420 Anderson St, Durham, NC 27705
