The United States Botanic Garden in Washington D.C. offers interactive virtual tours of their Rose Garden, Tropics House, and Bartholdi Park on their website. They also have video tours and you can explore the garden through historical photos! You can find all of that here: https://www.usbg.gov/take-virtual-tour

Next we'll go to Kyoto Gardens in Japan, to view 360 degree tours of 25 lovely gardens! Additionally, you can check out a map to see where each one is located, view fantastic photos, and read research articles about zen gardens. Everything, with detailed instructions on using the site, can be found here: https://kyotogardens.org/

Finally, we'll fly off to Keukenhof in Holland to view their gorgeous tulips, hyacinths, and orchids. There are 360 degree tours, videos with expert gardeners, and so much more to explore! Be sure to check out the video of violinist Rosanne Philippens at sunrise in the gardens, it is spectacular.
