18th Century Garden

It took me a while to find it but this small garden is beautiful, even off season.

Beautiful, historic garden while walking down the street.

This 18th century-style garden is a free, serene spot with a latticed gazebo for relaxing that's not far from the historic Independence Hall area. It is maintained by the National Park Service with some seating and it's handicap accessible. We enjoy strolling the garden at different times of year. Given our current drought, it's mainly trimmed boxwood hedges now. The garden was dedicated in 1966 by Ladybird Johnson.

Probably pretty in the spring or summer.

Not a giant garden, but a neatly kept English garden. Worth a stop.

Great hidden gem in Philly that is a quick and easy walk from the major historic sites. Almost always quiet and peaceful. Worth a pass through for anyone trying to imagine what Philly was like back in the 1700's.

Beautiful little garden right behind the Carpenters Hall

This is one of my favorite places in Philadelphia. Almost a secret garden hidden in plain sight. There’s a romantic bench in the middle for stealing kisses like it’s 1799.

Neat area, quiet when paths and benches

Everything about this place reminds me of the history of this ancient city. We had a tour guide who took us round while sharing stories of its origin. I loved it here and would visit again if I ever have the opportunity

An exquisite small garden just off walnut st. in old city. So much charm in such a small area. Sit on a bench and transport back in time as you absorb the serene atmosphere.

I visited this spot while sightseeing the Old City. It was an enjoyable stop, quiet and peaceful. It was very pretty and very colonial, and could potentially be a wonderful spot for graduation or wedding photos.

Amazing

Well I asked my gf to marry me at this garden. Pretty place to do it at.

It's my favorite garden and I hope to get married in it someday.

Peaceful and well-manicured, but small garden.

Beautiful place for relaxing and great place for wedding photos.

Worth a quick visit! Beautiful.

a beautiful little oasis of color in old city

One of the better maintained parks.
