This Hidden Spot In Maryland Is Unbelievably Beautiful And You’ll Want To Find It

If it’s scenic beauty you seek, then the following hidden gem in Maryland is worth searching out. In the spring and summer, this spot is a picturesque paradise for lovers of flowers. And in autumn and winter, it offers great views paired with bird watching. Hop in the car and prepare to feast your eyes.

Lilypons Water Gardens has been around for 100 years, serving Maryland residents and beyond. If you've got a water garden at home, are interested in building one, or simply want a day of exploring, head to this hidden gem in Adamstown.

This spot is quite sizable. From Google maps, you can see just just how large it is, including all of the individual ponds.

In fact, some people describe this place as more of a park. You could spend a few hours taking in the serene sights. Bring a picnic while you're at it.

During warmer months, blooms sprinkle the grounds. Pretty pops of pink and white stand out among the ponds.

Witness lily pads bigger than your head...

...and if you look really close, you may even spot a friendly frog or turtle.

See multi-colored Koi swim all around...

...and get the opportunity to feed them as well.

For those who are in need of water plants, Lilypons employees will hop in the water and pick the best ones for you. Talk about service!

When autumn arrives, the countryside setting becomes emblazoned with hues of copper.

You can still explore during winter, as many migrating birds make this watery place a stop along their journey.

Because of this reason, and more, you may want to bring your camera.
