Central Florida Attraction - Bok Tower Gardens in Lake Wales, Florida

Voted “Florida’s Best Garden,” this National Historic Landmark was dedicated in 1929 as a gift to the American people from Dutch immigrant and world peace advocate Edward Bok. Nearly 700 acres of conservation lands and gardens surround the 205-foot neo-Gothic and art deco “Singing Tower” carillon and the Pinewood Estate, a 20-room, Mediterranean-style 1930s winter retreat. A haven for wildlife, Bok Tower Gardens sits on one of peninsular Florida’s highest points and is home to more than 120 bird species, the threatened gopher tortoise and rare plants found nowhere else in the world. Scheduled to open in 2016, Bok Tower Gardens is in the process of completing a $12 million capital improvement project that will expand the attraction to include a children’s garden, wild garden, pollinator garden, outdoor kitchen, edible garden and a new garden entrance that features an oval lawn.
