Taipei Botanical Garden - Angel House Introduction
The Taipei Crawfish Garden, a rare combination of a Diamond-rated green building and the expertise of Taiwan's top horticulturists, focuses on the interplay between humans, plants, and the environment. It showcases plants from various regions of Taiwan according to different climates and habitats, creating a microcosm of Taiwan's ecological environment. This is the only exhibition greenhouse in Taiwan that displays the largest variety of plant species in a single area. The exhibition areas of the Taipei Crawfish Garden include a native plant area featuring local Taiwanese species, a tropical/subtropical plant area reminiscent of island tropical landscapes, an area showcasing the beauty of orchids and ferns, a succulent plant area with uniquely shaped varieties, a temperate plant area that appeals to both visual and olfactory senses, and an alpine plant area representing resilience. Additionally, the temperate plant area features a展示 of begonia varieties curated by Professor Peng Jing-yi from Academia Sinica, who has sourced over a hundred varieties globally for more than 20 years, particularly highlighting this plant with uniquely shaped leaves and beautifully patterned flowers. The entire garden displays over a thousand types of plants, each competing for attention and presenting their unique beauty. (Source: Taipei Crawfish Garden)
