The arrival of fall is no small thing here in Virginia. The season announces itself with incredible festivals paired with seasonal treats and beautiful landscapes. Some of the state’s most beautiful outdoor areas are all the more resplendent in their dazzling autumn colors. One such place that truly transforms during this season is Maymont Park in Richmond. Beautiful varieties of maples bloom into all sorts of colors, and you’ll just have to experience it for yourself.
Virginia's most beloved park completely transforms with the changing seasons, and it's a phenomenon that never loses its magic.
Beautiful anytime of year, Maymont Park has an undeniable allure in the autumn. Visitors dressed in warmer layers can enjoy these free public gardens with family, friends, and loved ones.
Head to the beautiful Japanese Garden to take a peek at the beautiful variety of Japanese Maples. These smaller trees bloom boldly, adding a vibrant allure to this peaceful and reflective space.
Another extraordinary aspect about the maple trees is that they'll appear different colors depending on the time of season. You could visit in early fall and experience a completely different landscape than you will in late November.
So whether you're looking to learn more about this impressive arboretum or simply looking to immerse yourself in fall foliage, Maymont is the perfect autumn destination.
Maymont is located at 1700 Hampton St, Richmond, VA 23220. For more information about this park, including exhibitions and activities, be sure to check out the website here.
