Journey Around the World Through Plants in One Continuous Greenhouse
About this spot
A greenhouse-style botanical museum within Tokiwa Park with 'world travel' as its concept. Zones themed on plant life from Tropical Asia, Africa, Central and South America, Europe and beyond are connected in sequence—walking through them feels like circling the globe. From lush tropical flowers to towering cacti and unique succulents in the arid zone, the scenery changes dramatically, keeping even small children engaged throughout. As an indoor facility, it's a reliable refuge on rainy days or during intense summer heat. Combined with the zoo, it rounds out your day with exposure to both fauna and flora.
Tips
Easily accessible on foot from the zoo. The greenhouse is warm and humid—wear layers you can remove. Each zone's atmosphere changes dramatically, so walking through while playing 'which country are we in?' with children adds to the fun.
Best time to visit
Approximately 1 hour. Mid-morning with bright daylight creates beautiful glass reflections and great photo opportunities inside.
