Garden of Lights January 9, 2011

Walk along the easily accessible paths and you'll see what sets this light show apart from others; it's the hundreds of wrapped trees and shrubs, beautifully lighted gazebos, cascading fountains, and the individually formed displays in the shapes of blooming flowers and wild animals. This festive, secular light show, now in its 14th season, is a popular family tradition in the Washington, DC area drawing close to 40,000 visitors each winter.
