Also known as the Bok Singing Tower and Gardens, the Bok Tower Gardens is a magnificent outdoor attraction where visitors can find themselves engaging in different activities. The grounds are ideal for picnicking. People can also marvel at the Singing Tower, hike at the Pine Ridge Trail, visit the Pinewood Estate, or learn more about the site?s history at the exhibit hall and museum.
Events are also commonly held here, including the rare opportunity to access the inside of the Singing Tower carillon. Recitals from the bells in the tower also attract crowds.
The Bok Tower Gardens is created by the artistic couple Edward and Mary Louise Curtis Bok. It was completed in 1929, and was dedicated by President Calvin Coolidge himself.
