With this new wealth, traders and officials enjoyed luxuries once limited to royalty, including pleasure gardens at the homes of the richest citizens. These personal gardens included water and water plants, shade trees, palms, and flower beds for a cool retreat. Visitors to our fall garden can relax and admire a distant view of the pyramids.
