In April next year an exciting new project will open its doors near
Angers in France. With almost 110,000 m2 of gardens, aquatic parks and
greenhouses and almost 40 attractions and activities, the park is a
multidimensional showcase of flora from the six continents, offering a
unique experience. For the first time ever, this innovative concept
offers an opportunity to discover every aspect of plant life
(historical, geographical, economic, symbolic, scientific, aesthetic)
in a single location.

Not only is there Terra Botanica in this region but many other gardens
of all types

I have put details of a few on
