People pay tremendous amounts of money to find or visit the most beautiful places.
What some people don’t know is that they can find majestic sights in the middle of Pierce College.
The Botanical Garden is where different types of wildlife reside, from plants to animals such as bunnies, turtles and birds.
Students can get away from busy school life or work by straying off the red brick road that is the Mall to the peacefulness that is the Botanical Garden.
