Every time I visit Cornell Botanic Gardens, there is always something new that I can learn. I have visited the Botanic Gardens multiple time for my classes and learned about the various herb gardens and the start of the Botanic Gardens. Similarly, today, I learned more about the history of Cornell and the Botanic Gardens, various types of plants, and how the gardens are organized. However, the most valuable lesson that I learned is that the Botanic Gardens provide such a peaceful environment and that it isn’t a place just for course usages. There are many outdoor areas with tables that allow students and visitors to study or relax while being surrounded by nature. I definitely appreciate that this precious location is near me and that I should more often visit to discover the hidden treasures of Cornell Botanic Gardens.
I think it is definitely a privilege to have such a beautiful and unique place on campus. I definitely want to make more trips to the Garden and especially try to study over there if I can bring my heavy bag over. I find the stories of the guide interesting.
