Thousands of lights, of varying intensity and color, bring out a different look and feel to the gardens.Evenings at the Gardens include entertainment. This nightly transformation into a wonderland of light is known as Night Illuminations

As you make your way around the gardens, you'll walk through intimate stone paths and streams, lined with colorful arrays of flowers and trees. The gardens adjust their floral displays to suit the season, so it is just as spectacular in spring and fall as it is in summer.
