Cheesman Park Travel Guide

Denver

The Denver Botanic Gardens' 24 acres feature 15,000 species of plants from across the globe, including more than 700 types of plants that are native to Colorado. Comprising 41 individual gardens, this facility in downtown Denver's Cheesman Park treats visitors to a variety of different environments, from a traditional Japanese Garden to the South African Plaza blooming with exotic plants like calla lilies and red hot pokers. I was there on winter and the variety of plants is limited, so is preferable to visit it during the summer. Parking lot is in the front of the main entrance and is free. #Denver #USA #Plants
