Item Description
Explore acres of natural beauty with four general admission tickets to Bok Tower Gardens, a National Historic Landmark.
Established in 1929, the 50-acre garden was designed by noted landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. to be a contemplative and informal woodland setting, offering a series of romantic recesses and tranquil resting spots, picturesque vistas and breathtaking views of the Singing Tower. Acres of ferns, palms, oaks and pines fashion a lush backdrop for flowering foliage. 126 different species of birds call Bok Tower Gardens home.
The 205-foot Singing Tower, with neo-Gothic and art deco tile mosaics, animal carvings and custom ironwork, is the focal point of the gardens. Designed by famed architect Milton B. Medary and ornately crafted by noted stone sculptor Lee Lawrie, the Tower houses one of the world’s finest carillons. Concerts from the 60-bell carillon at 1 and 3 p.m. fill the Gardens daily.
