Desert Botanical Garden for the Holidays

The Desert Botanical Garden is beautiful any time of the year, but it's especially stunning during the Holidays when the garden is decorated with thousands of luminarias. It's so festive with the lights and music. We started the tradition last year and plan to make it part of our Christmas tradition.
