Holiday Lights at the Gardens

by Michelle Schaefer

One of my most favorite spots to visit is the Botannical Gardens in Norfolk.

It’s a great activity any time of year(more on that later), but at this time of the year, you can drive thru the gardens and enjoy the light displays. Wow.

I enjoy these displays even more than the ones at the oceanfront. They are beautiful!

The best part about it is that you can get a discount if you buy tickets for both displays–meaning the displays at the oceanfront and at the gardens. Discounted tickets are very limited, so you need to buy them early in the season.

The light display continues until December 31st. Check out the Botannical Garden website for more information or to plan your trip!
