Default The beautiful `Biltmore Estate`











People who live in and around Ashville, NC - Please do yourself a favor this spring, and go visit Biltmore Estate. What I have here (above) probably doesn't make enough justice to the beautiful landscaping they have in there.

If you like what you see, can you please leave a comment/note on those respective flickr pages. (Just clicking on the image will take you there). I would appreciate it more, if you have some words for improvements that I can make.

The Biltmore has been a favorite destination for my wife and I for several years now. You have been fortunate to have been there during the hieght of the azalea bloom but there is much, much more to see and do there. Like mkrishna, I would encourage anyone with a hankering to go, camera in hand. The opportunites for great shots are everywhere.

I was fortunate enough to get an annual pass to the Biltmore Estate for free a few years back. I loved the gardens because there was always something in bloom when I went. Really a great way to spend a weekend.

Oh, and I see you're from metro Atlanta. You should also check out Callaway Gardens if you haven't been there yet. It's closer than Biltmore, costs a lot less, and if you're interested in flowers, the gardens there offer much better variety.

These are lovely. I visited your Flickr page, but wasn't able to view the Biltmore set. I did look at your Atlanta set and found those to be stunning. Thanks!

Hello Linda,

I am sorry about that. I will update the Biltmore set on my profile. Since I am not a 'pro' member on Flickr, I keep removing old images, to accomodate new ones.

Also, thanks so much for the kind comments. I really appreciate it.

Kris.
