Description:
|
NATIONAL MALL. Step out of the modern world and into a lush paradise, where controlled climates allow plants to thrive as they would naturally. Since the mid-1800s, a wide variety of specimens has been acquired for conservation efforts, including medicinal plants and rare and exotic flora from the tropics. After touring the conservatory, pay a visit to Bartholdi Park, where you'll find fragrant flower beds and a historic fountain by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, designer of the Statue of Liberty. Contact the Botanic Garden for its calendar of special exhibits and outdoor concerts. METRO: Federal Center SW |
