Dapingding Tropical Botanical Garden Introduction
Dapingding Tropical Botanical Garden is the first metropolitan tropical botanical garden in the country built for conservation, research, education, and recreation. It can be considered the lung of the area, providing a rich and diverse plant and ecological environment. With its excellent geographical location and climatic conditions, the garden nurtures a wide variety of species. The terrain features plateaus, steep slopes, and cliffs that provide diverse habitats for organisms. It serves as a site for environmental education and ecotourism on global issues, as well as a resource for academic research and natural conservation. It was awarded the "2010 National Excellent Construction Award" in the category of Outstanding Environmental Culture—Gold Award, and is known as the "Green Pearl." The garden is mainly divided into Tropical Scenery Area, Fruit Tree Area, Prairie Area, Rainforest Area, Coastal Plant Area, Aquatic Plant Area, Greenhouse Plant Area, and Education and Interpretation Center. Additionally, four walking routes suitable for different physical conditions have been planned based on distance, allowing visitors to gradually challenge themselves from the Leisure Path to the Hero Path.
