During Christmas the Atlanta Botanical Garden transforms into a winter wonderland. The synchronized lights and music displays are the best I have seen. It was a great way to push me into the holiday spirit. Speaking of spirits... what winter attraction is complete without hot chocolate, or even better, spiked hot chocolate!

Strolling along the canopy walk you will encounter Nature's Wonder. Thousands of lights set to music in a way you have never seen before.

We had a lot of fun playing with our lensballs. Still on the the best purchases ever!

Things to know before you go. It is pricey. If you don't mind going late go after 9 when it is only $15. Dress warm! Hot drinks are $5 but add in alcohol and they jump to $11. Members get $5 off but do not get in for free. Parking is cheaper during the week. Luckily my friend lives directly across the street so that was not an issue for us. I am a sucker for Christmas lights and these were great.
