UNC Charlotte Botanical Gardens

Small, but free and beautiful despite the Winter season. Parking is very limited, just 5 spaces in a lot that's marked as only being handicap parking. Exploring the outdoor gardens only required about a mile of walking.

UNC Charlotte Botanical Gardens & Greenhouse Very nice place with a great variety of plants, especially the tropical ones in the greenhouse 🌿. It’s peaceful, beautiful, and perfect for plant lovers. I didn’t see the dinosaur this time, though. I hope it comes back soon!

It was a great experience being in the gardens, highly recommend as a way to enjoy nature and relax between classes or just life in general :)

The cadaver and gardens were beautiful . An experience I will not forget!

Beautiful hidden gem! So peaceful, with winding trails, bridges, and lots of shade. There’s even a kids’ nature play area that kept mine entertained while I enjoyed the scenery. Very well kept, and plenty of benches to rest and take in the view.
