Outside Views in the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, Columbus, Ohio

Updated 06 October 2019

exterior of franklin park and arboretum



We were squired around Columbus, Ohio for a day by friends who live there. They especially wanted us to see the Franklin Park Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. We had a great time, including seeing both interior of the Conservatory and outside views of the flowers, sculpture, and landscaping. This garden has a fine display of Chihuly glass, one of the earliest installed in the U.S.

We even had a rainstorm during our visit, so saw some dramatic skies, while remaining dry inside the buildings.
