If you think you've seen places that claim nerdy exclusivity, the [Garden of Cosmic Speculation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tim-burton-light-trail) will make you think again. This garden is math- and science-themed, and is only open to the public one day a year!

This garden is [located in Scotland](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/union-terrace-garden) and is open to the public on May 2. From a [sculpture of a DNA helix](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/henderson-art-garden) to a mound mimicking Fibonacci's sequence of numbers, this place is definitely nerdy. Even non-nerds like myself can appreciate the Garden of Cosmic Speculation. I am intrigued by this originality and secrecy of this place. Looks like I am going to Scotland.
