A first visit to Maymont is best started at the Robins Nature & Visitor Center—Maymont's front door-but a history lover will soon find a path to the 1893 Maymont House Museum. A plant lover will find the elaborate Japanese and Italian gardens. For animal lovers there are the Nature Center, Wildlife Exhibits and the Children's Farm. Seekers of solitude will select the perfect spot under a stately elm or beside a babbling brook.
