Gardens in Durham

While we saw and captured bonsai images, we walked around the gardens and took photos.

The Sarah P. Duke Gardens consist of approximately 55 acres of landscaped and wooded areas at Duke University located in Durham, North Carolina. There are 5 miles of allées, walks, and pathways throughout the gardens.

Here an image of a yellow lily in a small pond.

Red Bridge

During the Walk of Hope, we saw the Sarah P. Duke Gardens’ iconic red bridge that has been named the Meyer Bridge, in memory of the late J. Horst Meyer, a Duke physics professor and beloved friend of Duke Gardens. The bridge is located over the large pond in the Culberson Asiatic Arboretum and is a favorite spot for visitors to pause for photos and gaze at the beauty around them.
