One of my favorite places to visit in Philadelphia is The Magic Garden. It is very difficult to describe in words or pictures as it is just so immersive. The Garden is an enormous ever growing collection of mosaic vignettes, The artist Isaiah Zagar has built this piece over a long period of time. I remember seeing this in it’s infancy several years ago and am constantly amazed at how I experience it anew on every visit. Isaiah also incorporates some of his poetry into the work. One line I just love is "I built this sanctuary to be inhabited by my ideas and my fantasies."
If you are ever in Philadelphia I urge you to take a walk down South Street and visit the garden
