Walnut Garden is now “Walnut Wonderland” from now until the end of the year.
The holiday spirit is spreading throughout Center City, and now Walnut Garden, a lush urban oasis, has transformed into "Walnut Wonderland."
This seasonal activation in the Rittenhouse neighborhood kicked off Wednesday with a tree-lighting ceremony and a visit from Santa Claus.
From now through the end of the year, visitors can enjoy this urban holiday cocktail garden festooned with lights and holiday décor, a 22-foot tree -- that has space for standing inside it -- a warming tent with two televisions and a special holiday menu with warm treats, hearty eats, steamy holiday beverages, and an on-site tree farm.
