These are from many of the area parks and gardens in the greater Charlotte area--from Lake Norman in the north to Stow Gardens in Gastonia- there is much to see and do in the outdoors, in and near Charlotte. Lake Norman is to the Northe and Lake Wylie to the south, both in commuting range of Uptown Charlotte. I recomend the slideshow for best viewing, you can adjust your preferences for speed! Visit Lake Wylie on the banks of McDowell Park... find out more about Charlotte at CharlotteCommunities.net. take a look at
