Botanical Building and Lily Pond
 |
|
|
This is a serene park within the park where ivy, ferns, orchids, impatiens, begonias, and other plants--about 2,100 tropical and flowering varieties, plus rotating exhibits--are sheltered beneath the domed lath house. The striking 250-foot-long building, part of the 1915 Panama-California Exposition, and is one of the world's largest wood lath structures, and emerged from a complete renovation in 2002. Kids love the "touch and smell" garden and the smelly bog of carnivorous plants; the lily pond out front attracts sun worshipers, painters, and street entertainers.
