Garden sights in Gainesville

  1. A

    Kanapaha Botanical Gardens

    The highlight of these oasis-like 62-acre gardens is the water garden, which resembles an impressionist painting with four waterfalls, lily pads and a babbling brook courtesy of reclaimed wastewater from the regional utilities board.

    From downtown take University Ave west to 13th St and turn left; continue to Archer Rd and turn right, following Archer 1 mile past I-75; the entrance is up the little dirt road on the right-hand side (look for the sign).
