Norfolk Botanical Garden is nationally recognized for its deep-rooted history and celebrated for its blooms in every season. In 1938, a WPA grant paid 220 workers to clear 30 acres of dense vegetation, sowing the seeds for what is now one of the largest collections of azaleas, camellias, roses and rhododendrons on the East Coast. The 155 acre garden is home to 40 distinctive themed gardens, 95 species of birds and 30 kinds of butterflies. The latest garden is World of Wonders - A Children's Adventure Garden - a 3-acre garden where kids explore the connections between plants, international culture and the environment - all while having fun! These two Family Fun Passes admit up to six people per vehicle for general admission.
