Mylee's Corner: Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens

 

Glorious Gardens

Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens should be on your summer bucket list! It has many different exhibits from rainforests to deserts, there’s even a whole room of butterflies. There are indoor exhibits as well as the outdoor gardens. There’s also a huge children’s area full of themes the little ones would love!

I was able to explore the place and all of its beauty in two hours but I definitely could’ve stayed longer if it hadn’t been raining. It’s a little confusing to navigate the place so make sure you grab your map at the beginning because you’re going to need it.

The Garden Café was full of delicious foods and the portions were decent size. The prices of tickets, food, and items from the gift shop are pricey but it was worth all the joy and happiness it brings. Check it out at 1777 East Broad Street, Columbus, Ohio. It’s quite a glorious adventure!
