The Cator Woolford Gardens at the Frazer Center are nestled in the Druid Hills of Atlanta, Georgia. The property was once part of a 33-acre estate belonging to an entrepreneur by the name of Cator Woolford. Then in the 1920s, a prominent garden architect, Frederick Law, designed the gardens to look as they do today. These secluded gardens are an oasis of flowers and trees. There's even a small stream that runs through the property.
The gardens are a popular place for weddings, so it is not uncommon to see photographers taking pictures of wedding parties. The Frazer Center itself, is a building that houses programs for disabled children. I'm sure it's very therapeutic for the kids to enjoy the beauty of nature here!
Admission is free, and the gardens are open from dawn to dusk.
I bet there aren't too many weddings at the height of summer though!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's hot, but there are still plenty of weddings.
