Botanical Building

Botanical Building and Lily Pond One of the most prestigious attractions in Balboa Park is the tropical plant greenhouse and the lotus pond (Botanical Building and Lily Pond). This antique botanical garden greenhouse with a strong sense of history is one of four permanent buildings at the 1915 Panama-California Expo. The greenhouse is a slat structure, 2,500 feet long, 75 feet wide and 60 feet high. It is still one of the largest slat structures in the world. The greenhouse contains more than 2,100 permanent plants and seasonal colour displays including sioux, ferns, orchids, pineapples, palm trees, and various seasonal flowers. The greenhouse is lush and leafy, and the orchids are in full bloom. The sun shines through the wood bars into the greenhouse, and the light and shadow of the wood bars are reflected in each other, which is a bit mysterious and wonderful. Opening hours: Friday to Wednesday, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. Thursday and city holidays closed. Free.

All plant lovers need to see Balboa Park has lots of views to see and I think it is in the top five. A lot of things are happening in the greenhouse botanical garden, for example, the famous fish pond is introducing the botanical garden. Entering inside, you enter a world of plants. They change some plants depending on the season, so it's fun to go to see the new plants on display a few times a year.

The favorite place in Balboa Park is also the most popular place. The flowers in front of the lotus pond are cultivated according to the different seasons, so different flowers can be seen in all seasons. The lotus flowers in the lotus pond are colorful, and there are many lizards, ducks, brocades, It is also very comfortable to watch the water in your free time.

This is the most lively place in the entire Balboa Park. The pond is located in front of the botanical garden. Although it is not big, the scenery is very good. There are koi in the pond and lotus flowers on the water. Especially the picture of the duck mother with the ducklings foraging by the pond is very warm.

Santiago Botanical Architecture and Lotus Pool is located in Balboa Park. It is a very beautiful botanical garden. There are not only all kinds of flowers and plants, but also a wood structure building. In front of the building is a rectangular lotus pool. Under the sunset, the scenery here is very beautiful.
