The world's most photogenic botanical gardens have been revealed and one from the North East has made the cut.
Ranked 24th in the world and 3rd in the UK, the Alnwick Garden only came behind Kew Gardens and the Eden Project according to a study carried out by Savoy Stewart. The commercial real estate company commissioned the data which analysed Instagram hashtags to deliver the UK-wide and global lists.
Alnwick Garden came out with 43,084 hashtags, just one spot ahead of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh. It was some way behind the world's top garden, Gardens by the Bay in Singapore with 1,209,129 hashtags, but that's not bad going for the Northumberland attraction, which is currently working on adding the world's largest play structure, Lilidorei, to its offering.
