One of the most lovely outdoor spaces you will find anywhere. The research component of MOBOT is among the best in the world. The Wednesday night concerts during the summer with free admission are not to be missed. Bring good food, a few bottles of wine, and friends for a great evening.

In the winter the place was just too empty. Yet there was a lot to see.
I could not tell if there was any tour schedule for Shaw's Mansion. It was easy to get lost and not find your way back to the entrance. I wanted to see more than the usual hot-house plants.
When the geodesic dome opened up...

By far, the Missouri Botanical Garden is one of the best in the country. The fantastic Japanese Garden is definitely the highlight, but don't miss out on the charming Ottoman Garden, the large Iris Garden, and a stroll through the English Woodland Garden. All the grounds are meticulously maintained and laid out extremely well. It's the oldest botanic garden in...
