I cannot believe I am going to admit this, but until last weekend I had never been to the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. As a Birmingham, Alabama native that seems pretty hard to believe, but it’s true. Now that I have been, I definitely plan on going back. I can appreciate their description of the Gardens as, “Alabama’s largest living museum”. It is truly a sublime destination. You cannot beat the price (free), and they have more than just 10,000 different plants in its living collections. They also have a cafe, library and a gift shop.
Since I knew this trip to the Gardens would be an excellent photo opportunity I brought my camera along. I hope my photos from the day give you an idea of what kind of experience the Birmingham Botanical Gardens provides. Enjoy!
