My favorite walk 🌸💐🌷Coker Arboretum, Chapel Hill

This is my favorite spot for a picnic, stroll, or photoshoot. The arboretum is beautiful with lots of benches, little rivers, and so many native plants and flowers. My favorite spot is right outside the walled in gardens and is the little shrine pictured in the 4th slide - I’m not sure what it is there for, but I love the quirky objects people have placed to make a tiny artsy garden. #garden #unc #raleigh #thingstodo
