Even with 8 inches of snow on the ground the Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park is a fascinating place to roam around and explore.

It is a combination botanical garden, art museum and outdoor sculpture park beautifully arranged upon 158 acres. It is a celebration of both human creativity and nature's own creation.

A blanket of fresh snow merely offers yet another seasonal change in perspective. However, if you get too cold, there is a five-story, 15,000 square foot glass conservatory in which you can warm up in a humid rainforest or explore a desert environment with some rather impressive cacti. For three years running the park has been voted the # 1 sculpture park in the country by USA Today.
