The Eden project in Cornwall
A hugely successful attraction, the Eden Project is the largest greenhouse in the world. Built inside a disused china clay pit, visitors can expect to experience a tropical rain forest and temperate zones within the structure that occupies a site as large as 35 football pitches.
The greenhouse is split into two biomes, the tropical section full of exotic plants from the Amazon jungle, Africa, Malaysia and Oceana, including over thirty varieties of banana palm, mango, teak and mahogany.
In the tropical biome, visitors can walk through pineapple, rubber and sugar cane plantations, and paddy fields. There is even a river and waterfall.
The delights of a temperate Mediterranean like climate await in the other biome where visitors will be enchanted with the scent of citrus blossom, orange and lemon trees.
The project is the brainchild of Tim Smit who won Lottery funding and then commissioned Nicholas Grimshaw, architect of the Eurostar Terminal at Waterloo in London to design it.
The British love gardens and plants of all kinds. Put the Eden Project at the top of your list of places to visit in Cornwall but be prepared for lengthy queues at times - it's a popular visitor attraction.
