Urban Gardens

Where Nature and Cities Come Together

People say cities are concrete jungles, but every city hides pockets of green that remind us nature is always around us. So we challenged city dwellers around the world to head out with their Galaxy devices and capture their favorite urban gardens, where concrete and nature come together in stunning fashion. Using the hashtag #withGalaxy, we selected a few of our favorites. Enjoy.

The river cuts through the city to remind us that our urban spaces are built around natural elements. Close your eyes, listen to the water, and escape the city without ever leaving.

We love how the leaves climb the building alongside the fire escape. It brings out the urban explorer in us.

Where nature meets industrial. The dense foliage against the clean steel makes this city feel untamed.

The riotous colors of the trees transform a utilitarian road into a path of wonder. We would walk beneath those blazing leaves forever.

We love how the lush plants partially obscure but also draw your eyes to the window in the background. A garden outside and a mystery inside.

The setting sun splits the tree-filled sidewalk from its urban brother, evoking a sense of peaceful co-existence between nature and man.
