More proof that beautiful gardens can live almost anywhere, and in relatively small spaces, is this eye-catching display in Center City. Just across the street from Philadelphia Museum of Art, well-known to moviegoers for its appearances in the "Rocky" films, this garden features red and yellow, standing out from the soothing green of grass and trees, while majestic steps and fountains are seen in the background. Driving here requires vigilance, so gardens like these are best seen while walking around the city. Many statues of historical figures, just waiting to be explored, add to the experience.
