概要
クイックファクト: Follow winding paths under a canopy where orchids and cool-mountain plants perfume the air, and you can spot a surprising mix of over 20,000 specimens representing roughly 2,500 species. Visitors often linger by the themed exhibits and tranquil ponds, enjoying birdcalls and the feeling of being in a living library of native plant diversity.
見どころ: Ask a guide about the Royal Botanical Expedition of 1783 led by José Celestino Mutis: they still show hand-drawn plates from the original sketches and point out living specimens whose Latin names trace back to that voyage. On misty mornings the air smells of damp earth and eucalyptus; lean in toward a vertical wall of orchids and you can hear volunteers trading handwritten seed-provenance cards while tiny, jewel-like blooms perfume the path.
