Let it be said right away: Don't
visit this botanical garden to see caudiciforms , cacti and succulents.
When that is said, I can only highly recommend this awesome park in Sri
Lanka. It is, without doubt, one of the finest maintained BG I ever
seen. It was a bit misty the day I
visited in 2013, but that only added to the atmosphere.

It covers a huge
Fernery garden, including large lakes and hillsides. There might not be names on
that many plants, but it is a beautiful park! |
