Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden. GUYS. This JEM of a botanical garden is in Charlotte, NC. What can i say. The inside terrarium gives all the Alice in Wonderland meets jungle vibes that i love. And the outside has water features, a cute childrens area, multiple trails, and plants for daysssss. If you know me, you know I'm a sucker for a good botanical garden, and this was one of my favorites yet. #botanicalgardens #botanicalgarden #charlotte #charlottenc #garden #fountains #childrensgarden #plants #charlottebotanicalgarden #charlottebotanicalgardens #northcarolina #aliceinwonderland #danielstowebotanicalgarden #visitnc #visitcharlotte #visitcharlottenc
