More information on Atlanta Botanical Gardens

Breathe deeply and enjoy the fresh, sweet smells and colorful sights of these 30-acre gardens. Several traditional though in no way ordinary gardens, like the Japanese, Rose, and Herb gardens, grace the entrance area, while more unusual gardens bloom throughout. Orchid lovers will thoroughly enjoy the Fuqua Orchid Center, while visitors who like getting lost in the woods will love the two large woodland areas. Guided tours, special events, and fun classes like "Planning an Autumn Vegetable Garden" make your experience here even richer.
