Beautiful spot! It's great to visit any time of year, but it can be especially nice in the dead of winter.
A fantastic must see in Pittsburgh!
I'm not a botanical garden lover, but this place was amazing. The glass sculptures and layout really set it apart from other gardens I've visited. It keeps you wondering what amazing site awaits you around the next corner. Bright and vibrant, it's a treat for the senses. Spent about 2 1/2 hours walking through. Highly recommended for anyone, not just botanical lovers.
This is a must see. My favorite time to visit is the dead of winter. They have a winter light show inside and out. They even stay open late to get the full effect. It's absolutely stunning. Plan to spend at least 2 hours to see everything. Longer to truly appreciate everything.
