Green Angel Gardens

Green Angel Gardens, outside Juneau, is a wonderful peaceful oasis of natural beauty. Our final stop on a tour of Juneau, this easy-to-enjoy location features bright flowers, as seen here, a gentle walking trail, and lots of things to see. A family business operated by transplanted Alaskans, they show maps and items that display native customs and traditions.

As noted in an earlier post, the long hours of daylight combine with a lack of the withering heat of much of the lower 48 states to provide greenery and flowers that are as beautiful as any garden lover could wish to see. Be certain when you plan an Alaska trip to set aside time for one or more of the lush gardens of the 49th state.

From Green Angel, our bus took us back to town, but we did not immediately board ship. Instead we trammed up the mountain. We visit Lady Baltimore on the next post.
