One of the world’s great gardens
Longwood Gardens is an amazing 1,000+ acre horticulture display garden in Kennett Square, between Lancaster and Philadelphia. There are both outdoor and indoor gardens, fountains, amazing landscaping, a house, and even a tower. Once owned by Pierre S. du Pont, Longwood Gardens now attracts over 1 million visitors per year. This is a truly amazing place you will take quite some time to explore and photograph all areas. It is a great place to photograph colorful flowers, and the area is quite different from throughout the seasons.
I would recommend when you first walk in to go to the right and check out all of the flowers. Get to the Italian water feature, and then walk to the other side through the woods.
It also hosts an extensive Christmas light display during the holiday season.
conservatory, opened in 1921, is home to 4,600 types of plants and trees.
It will take three to four hours to see the majority of the Gardens (including the Conservatory).
Longwood Gardens features several dining options including a cafe, a beer garden and a full-service restaurant.
They have a couple of places to eat and plenty of seats indoors and outdoors.
Entrance fee is $25
