Luxurious Indulgence
Christmas in Philadelphia
Philadelphia is a special, interesting and beautiful city. During the holiday season there is so much to see and do. One of the popular places to visit in December is the Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania. This beautiful arboretum began in 1887 when it was a summer home for John and Lydia Morris who were brother and sister. Their father founded the I.P. Morris Company which is an iron-manufacturing firm. John later ran the company which created wealth for the family.
The land the family purchased was barren and had poor soil. However, they worked hard to improve the soil conditions and planted a great deal of beautiful plants and added landscaping. Mr. Morris was an expert gardener and soon the estate was lovely. John and Lydia traveled all across the US and to Asia and Europe. They brought back magnificent artwork, crafts and plants. They shared a love of history and art and consequently created a tradition of placing sculpture in the garden that continues today.
In 1932 the estate became the Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania. Today it is listed on The National Register of Historic Places, serves as an interdisciplinary resource center for the University of Pennsylvania and is recognized as the official arboretum of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Below are some of marvelous events held in December:
Holiday Garden Railway Nights
The Holiday Garden Railway will be lit with sparkling white lights. Buildings are adorned with miniature greens and other holiday decorations. There is also a forest of trees made of lights that reaches to heights of 12 feet.
Holly Highlights and Winter Greenery Tour
