Yours to explore
Make your way through the meandering pathways inside the glass-enclosed conservatory. Surrounded by towering tropical plants and gorgeous blooms, where you go next is up to you! You’ll find feeding trays where butterflies gather for an up-close look, specially curated blooms that attract these fascinating creatures, and a picturesque waterfall creating a virtual rain forest atmosphere.
The emergence window
Experience a fascinating stage of the butterfly’s life cycle at the emergence window. Various species of butterfly, in their pupae stage, hang in this enclosed space. If you’re lucky, you might even see a butterfly emerge from its pupa, hanging to dry its wings before its first flight.
