Riverbanks Zoo and Garden, Columbia-South Carolina
“Riverbanks is home to more than 2,000 magnificent and fascinating animals and one of the nation’s most beautiful and inspiring botanical gardens. The lush 170-acre site features dynamic natural habitat exhibits, scenic river views, spectacular valley overlooks and significant historic landmarks. For more than 30 years, Riverbanks has provided individuals, families and groups with a common place to connect with and learn about the world’s wildlife and wild places. Twice awarded the Governor’s Cup for South Carolina’s Most Outstanding Tourist Attraction, Riverbanks is the premier family choice for education and recreation in the Southeast.”
So, there is something for the kids and the moms too. Actually, the gardens sound quite spectacular. And, if you time it right, Riverbanks, even offer classes on gardening!
The only thing that has me worried is the 170 acres. My daughter is a landscape designer and I have a feeling that she would want to cover every inch of the garden. And then if there are monkeys at the zoo, well, I think that we are going to be there for quite a while!
