We live two miles from Longwood Gardens and so we tend to take it for granted. What a mistake! Every time we go, we realize that we should visit more often. More than 1,000 acres of lush plantings and water features, meticulously maintained, with incredible lighted fountain displays at night set to music in the summer season. From May to... more

We visited it in last october for fall .. and it was such a wonderful place. It was very beautiful garden with different varieties of plants and especially their fall theme is Marvellous... more

This place is gorgeous and well worth the $16 per person admission price. The grounds are large and well organized. We only had two hours, so the visit was a bit rushed. I wish I could have spent the entire day here. The cafe where we grabbed a quick lunch to go has extensive and very tasty and reasonably prices... more

We just returned from a lovely day at Longwood Gardens and we were blown away. What a beautiful place to spend a day but after just a few hours, we were exhausted. Each area and exhibit was more beautiful than the next. We look forward to making another visit in the future and we'll wear our comfortable shoes! more

I've been to Longwood twice this year. It's always changing and there's always something that you didn't see the last time. It's such a peaceful and beautiful place to visit. It can be hot in the summer, but well worth it. The orchids alone are worth the visit. They are so exotic. We stayed for one of the Fireworks and... more

Longwood Gardens has several beautiful outdoor exhibits, an indoor exhibit, and also includes the Pierce-DuPont house which dates back to 1730. The house can be toured like the rest of the Gardens. History buffs would certainly enjoy the house and the tour that accompanies it. Keep in mind that if you are visiting the Gardens during the late fall or... more

Definitely worth the $16 entrance per person. The estate is so expansive and peaceful. My husband and I enjoyed walking around the paths. I loved the Italian water fountain garden. The bee hive house was interesting and watching the bees work was surprisingly amusing! We loved the conservatory! It was just fun wandering around the different areas. My favorite was... more
