Description
Give yourself and entire mild-weathered afternoon to explore the leaf-clad limbs and flower-framed trails of the State Botanical Gardens of Georgia (in association with the Univeristy of Georgia) in Athens, an expansive complex with several miles of trails lacing over 300 acres land girded with shady shrubs, placid ponds, and blossoms both native and exotic. Watch for indigenous bird species alighting in the trees, warm up with the tropical plants in the Conservatory and sign yourself and your young ones up for one of the educational programs on offer through the gardens for a well-rounded introduction to the world of flora and fauna.
