Welcome to a world where nature and art harmoniously coexist all year round. Here, you’ll find around twenty themed gardens showcasing an incredible 2,500 plant species. Imagine strolling by a tranquil lake, home to a delightful mix of ducks, pelicans, and black swans, all living together in serene unity. The lake also mirrors the stunning white marble facades of the Asian Arts Museum, a masterpiece by the renowned Japanese architect Kenzo Tange.

One highlight you can’t miss is the ‘Green Diamond,’ one of Europe’s largest greenhouses. This marvel guides visitors through six distinct tropical climates, revealing a treasure trove of rare plant species. From majestic tree ferns to a captivating orchid collection, the greenhouse is a botanical wonderland. But it's not just about plants. You’ll also encounter fascinating wildlife, including crocodiles, iguanas, and exotic birds. And don’t forget the adorable family of Varis lemurs, who are currently charming everyone who visits.

Fun fact: The Asian Arts Museum not only dazzles with its architecture but also hosts a variety of cultural events and exhibitions throughout the year. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, an art lover, or just looking for a peaceful escape, this place offers something special for everyone.
