Shangri La in Orange

A beautiful botanical garden and nature center

A few hours east of Houston, just shy of the Louisiana border lays the Shangri La Botanical Gardens and NatureCenter.  This great natural wonder can be a perfect place for couples that wish to get out of the city, offering a chance to spend some time in nature, away from the cares of their everyday lives.  The center holds more than 250 acres of swamps, wetlands and more, with each garden area created unique.  More than 300 types of plant species exist within the park, as well as a wide variety of birds.  And with the exhibits and other attractions, you can also take some time to learn about the center as well.  Has anyone ever spent a day at a nature center before?
