We have lots of bridges here in Texas. Some are for pedestrians, some suspension, and still others haunted by restless spirits.

Although the garden was designed for children, adults enjoy it all the same. Interactive exhibits amid a lush, breathtaking landscape provides an immersive and educational experience for nature lovers of all ages.

That distant circular structure is the Skywalk. Many visitors like to make it a grand finale of sorts, letting anticipation build as they meander through the garden.

Approaching the bridge, you’ll traverse a twisting and turning trail of vibrant greenery. Little ones will have an absolute blast trying to name all the different varieties of plant life.
