The Eden Project, Cornwall
The Eden project in Cornwall is a large scale environmental complex comprising two domes that contain two different biomes, tropical and Mediterranean.
The domes are strikingly constructed from hundreds of hexagons and a few pentagons made from tough plastic. The humid tropics biome is the largest greenhouse in the world and covers 3.9 acres. Inside the domes, you will see millions of plants including a rainforest, banana trees and bamboo with sculptures and art displayed througout.
The Eden project offers an interactive approach to educating about plants. Visitors can experience workshops, impromptu storytelling, children's play areas and the new Mechanical Theatre which uses puppets and robots to demonstrate plant stories.
Healthy food and snacks are available and cater for those with special diets such as gluten free and vegetarian.
This living theatre is constantly changing and so are its events and exhibitions. The website has detailed information of what's on.
