About this place

Texas Discovery Gardens is a 7.5-acre garden in Dallas Fair Park with plant trails, butterflies, and insects. Families can visit the Sammons Butterfly and Insectarium to see exotic species, watch native free-flying butterflies and hummingbirds, explore a reptile building, and climb the outdoor rock wall. There is also a lobby tank with axolotls, model garden trains, a model of the Alamo, and programs covering plants, insects, solar power and water conservation. Summer storytime sessions feature children's authors reading and leading craft activities in the gardens.

If you are a member here

A membership to Texas Discovery Gardens carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in this program.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
