The Eden Project

In a huge crater in Cornwall lies a gateway into the world of plants and people. Nestled against the cliff are two conservatories shaped like giant bubbles that are home to thousands of plants from the tropical rainforest areas and the warm climates of the Mediterranean regions. Outside are plants that enjoy the temperate Cornish climate including wheat, tea and sunflowers.

Lying at the heart of one of the most mysterious estates in England, Heligan, the former seat of the Tremayne family, is now the site of the largest garden restoration in Europe.
