VENUE INFO
Longwood Gardens is a wonderful treat throughout the year but comes alive in a magical way every Christmas season. Wander the paths outside through hundreds of thousands of twinkling lights. Warm your hands and your heart inside the conservatories and marvel at the beauty of the displays.
Winterthur Museum & Gardens is an American estate and museum in Winterthur, Del., and houses one of the richest collections of Americana in the United States. The museum and estate were the home of Henry Francis du Pont, Winterthur's founder and a prominent antiques collector and horticulturist.
We've added a visit to the Brandywine Museum of Art to this year's Longwood Christmas tour. This facility is dedicated to regional and American art and showcases the work of Andrew Wyeth, a major American realist painter, and his family.
We are staying at the quaint Mendenhall Inn where you will enjoy a buffet on Friday evening before heading out to Longwood Gardens, and breakfast the next morning. There is a cozy bar inside the inn.
Philadelphia Premium Outlets offers shopping for all tastes at outlet prices -- from Aeropostale to Zumiez and many stores in between including Crocs, The North Face, Old Navy and Hot Topic.
