Infusing new life into the UNESCO heritage site
The Tropical Montane Orchidetum provides a wonderful opportunity to enhance the National Orchid Garden as a world class visitor attraction. It is a novel attraction displaying orchids that span the range from the lowland to the elfin forest – one of the world’s first. The existing Cool House is redesigned and enhanced to form the core attraction within the Tropical Montane Orchidetum forming a much larger single space tall enough to allow visitors an experience of both the terrestrial and the arboreal zones of the montane forest.
