Renowned plant collections, beautiful displays and spectacular exhibitions make the Atlanta Botanical Garden a lovely place to visit. We will stroll the gardens to photograph some of the displays and architecture the garden has to offer. The model trains will be still running (weather permitting). After our stroll, we will visit the excellent Orchid Display House and the Tropical High Elevation house. You may consider coming back in the evening for the spectacular Holiday Lights display (starts at 05:00pm, additional cost).

Location: 1345 Piedmont Ave NE, Atlanta, GA 30309 (approx. 20 miles from Roswell, roughly 30-45 min)

When: We plan to assemble at the ticket booth at 09:00am on Saturday, January 11 for a group photo.
The garden opens at 9:00am and closes at 03:00pm. It will re-open at 05:00pm for the Holiday Lights.

Cost: General Admission to the garden is $29.95 (a separate ticket for the Holiday Lights is $49.95).

Friends and family are welcome.
The garden has a cafeteria.

Photography Tips: Consider using a standard zoom lens like 24-70mm. A longer lens or a macro lens is useful for detailed shots. You can bring a tripod or monopod, but space is limited inside the Orchid House.
