Located in the City of Omaha, Mount Vernon Gardens
is a half-scale replica of George Washington's
estate in Virginia. A full-sized replica of Mount
Vernon's maze highlights the riverfront park,
while extensive gardens represent the original
estate's various gardens and buildings. Visitors
can overlook the bluffs of the Missouri River
from the portico. Developed in the late 1920s,
this site's historic features were restored in
the 1990s and accessible walkways were added.
Today, its lush gardens and breathtaking views
make Mount Vernon Gardens a primary attraction
in Omaha and a popular site for social gatherings,
weddings and sightseeing.
