On one random day that I had a day off work, I ventured into Downtown Toronto to take care of some errands. While wasting time between these errands, I went to the Allan Gardens Conservatory (160 Gerrard Street East, Toronto) to look at some exotic plants inside of a warm greenhouse on a chilly winter day. I needed a distraction from the current pressures in my life. In addition, entry to this conservatory is free, so why would I not want to go.
I was impressed to see all kinds of different exotic plants, including cacti, agave, and others. I am no botanist by any sort, but I certainly appreciate the tranquil atmosphere that the Allan Gardens Conservatory provides. I noticed people sitting on the benches working away on their laptops, or sketching a drawing on their sketchpad. I sat at one of the benches in the conservatory emptying my thoughts into a future entry on this blog.
One more thing to mention: there is a turtle pond in the conservatory. If you like turtles, then you will like going to this place. Allan Gardens was a great place to clear my head
