Lauritzen Gardens
Tucked away at the end of Bancroft Street, Lauritzen Gardens and Kenefick Park offer an exceptional canvas for photographers looking to explore the diverse landscapes these parks provide. Lauritzen Gardens is an urban oasis with a wide variety of themed gardens, including a rose garden, a Japanese garden, and even a model railroad garden, each offering unique photographic opportunities. The gardens change with the seasons, providing a dynamic backdrop for year-round photography. Meanwhile, Kenefick Park, located at the garden's entrance, features two of the greatest locomotives ever to power Union Pacific Railroad, offering an unexpected but intriguing subject for photographers. Don't miss the opportunity to shoot from the park’s overlook, which offers a sweeping view of the Missouri River Valley—perfect for landscapes. Note that there is an entrance fee for Lauritzen Gardens, and it's advisable to check the website for current hours and any special exhibits that might add extra flair to your photographs.
