There are few peaceful rooms in a busy city...and these are some of the best! Plush rooms of oxygen that I have enjoyed for decades...such a gift.

Wide variety of plants in large glass observatories on Belle Isle in the Detroit River. Hidden treasure in an urban setting.

Stumbled on the conservatory on a car trip around the city. Belle Isle is a GREAT stop on a tour with out of town guests, and the conservatory is a neat place to stop. Open until 5 on a saturday, its like a trip to the tropics!

Great place to visit if your in Detroit. Free of charge and a beautiful array of plant life.
