Bok Tower Gardens
Bok Tower Gardens, a "must see Florida attraction" centrally located between Tampa and Orlando among rolling hills of citrus!
Nearly 50 acres of Olmsted gardens surround Pinewood Estate, a 1930s Mediterranean-style mansion, and the 205-foot art deco and neo-Gothic Singing Tower housing one of the world's finest carillons with 60 bells that ring every half hour and during daily concerts.
The National Historic Landmark was dedicated in 1929 as a gift from Dutch immigrant Edward Bok, a Pulitzer Prize-winning author and world peace advocate.
A Place For Everyone!
Bok Tower Gardens is a place that has something for everyone! Here you can explore the landscaped gardens of Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. and one of Florida's natural habitats on the Pine Ridge Trail. You can also discover the history of Edward W. Bok and the building of his 205 foot Singing Tower and tour the historic Pinewood Estate mansion to catch a glimpse of the luxurious lifestyle of the 1930s.
