Most People Have No Idea There’s A Fairy Garden Hiding In Arizona And It’s Magical

Valley of the Moon is a magical place in which we all can escape every once in a while. You don't have to believe in fairies to fall in love with this hidden sanctuary that's as fun for adults as it is for children. Because, where else in Arizona can you get lost in a fairy garden sanctuary built in the 1920s? Let's take a look at one of the best gardens in Arizona!

The odd thing about Valley of the Moon is that most people don't even know Arizona has a fairy garden!

It's pretty amazing - take a look!

Tucson's Valley of the Moon was built under the direction of one man - George Phar Legler - a dreamer who in the 1920s had a vision for building a magical fairy garden that would welcome children and adults alike.

He designed and created Valley of the Moon largely between 1923 and 1932. It became a nonprofit in 1945 with the purpose of advocating tolerance and brotherly love regardless of someone's race, creed, or color.

Today, one of the sweetest botanical gardens in AZ is open to the public and you'll love exploring the enchanting creations found here.

We think the Wizard's Tower looks even more magical among the twinkling lights and soft, pink sunset.

Spring brings delightful blossoms along the paths.

Legler created the fantasy park with the idea that kindness to all is the golden key to happiness.

The whimsical serenity found here around every corner reflects those intentions.

Over the decades, he built a fantastical sanctuary and opened it to the public.

It's so beloved, that Tucson's city council has zoned it as a historical landmark, and it was also added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Theater at the Valley of the Moon gives opportunities to actors, seamstresses, and prop and set builders.

It's a good way to get involved and help out the community.

You can visit and discover happily ever after at this lovey fairy garden in Arizona for yourself.

The park is open on certain days and is also home to special events that include Fairy Lights Nights, Wellness Workshops, and Guided Historical Tours.
