It's not a space station, it's the Taiyuan Botanical Garden
The Taiyuan Botanical Garden is such a surprise and so romantic! A 60-meter-long popular escalator, like a time tunnel, with twinkling lights✨ against the blue night sky, gives a feeling of stars and the bright galaxy, it's stunningly beautiful!
This most beautiful botanical garden🌴, which integrates technology and ecology, was reconstructed by the Austrian Delugan Meissl Associated Architects on the site of an old coal mine. Its unique wooden grid dome structure of the greenhouse complex won the ENR2021 Global Best Project Award🌟, and it was the only project from China selected that year!

🌟Tour route
1️⃣Petting zoo
At the entrance, check the ticket before entering
2️⃣Insect Pavilion
Lots of beautiful butterflies🦋, skip to the next stop if you're afraid of bugs
3️⃣Swans🦢 and fish🐟 by the lake
Exit the Insect Pavilion, go straight out of the building, walk forward a bit to the lake, lots of fish by the shore, red ones swimming around beautifully, and several pairs of black swans and many ducklings
4️⃣Three spheres
(Tropical Rainforest Pavilion➕Desert Plant Pavilion➕Flower Pavilion) Walk along the river to reach the three big spheres, all three pavilions are great for photos, the rainforest pavilion even has a big waterfall, just follow the path down
5️⃣Ride around the park
(Petting Zoo➕Observation Deck➕Peacock Garden) From the last sphere, walk forward to the ride spot, it's recommended to choose the big car which should be 10 yuan per person, the park is actually quite large, the car will stop at each scenic spot, remember not to lose your ticket, it will be checked each time you board.
The observation deck is worth climbing for the view, it's quite high and you can see far; the Petting Zoo has alpacas, rabbits, horses, and sheep; you can skip the Peacock Garden without getting off, because if you want to go in you have to spend money to buy food to feed them, they won't let you in without feeding...
6️⃣Popular elevator
The popular elevator lights up around eight o'clock in the evening, depending on the season it's later in the summer. You can sit by the lake and feed the ducks, take pictures of the swans, enjoy the cool breeze in the evening, or go back to the entrance building, turn right after entering and there's a plant specimen exhibition hall.
The botanical garden with a sense of design is basically indoors, insect museums, desert plants, tropical rain forests are very good, the animal display area at the door is also very interesting, the elevator is also designed with a unique style, the supporting restaurants inside are complete, it is a good place for leisure and vacation.
Very good, very big, the lights at night are very sci-fi, the park is not small, there are black swans, I went there in the afternoon to see the lights, it is a bit far from the city, it is not very convenient to go back to take a taxi at night.
Taiyuan Botanical Garden, beautiful scenery, fresh air, people's heads, busy traffic, it is a good place to walk the baby on weekends, there is a good biodiversity, let us be in it, as if we are immersed in the environment
There are too many people, overall it is not bad, it is very beautiful at night, it is very recommended to go, the place is also very big, there are many to enjoy, cattle, horses, camels, pigeons, all kinds of flowers
The botanical garden has a good environment and a small area. There are several botanical gardens in the courtyard. There are different varieties, tropical and temperate, and all kinds of plants. Especially at night, the lights here are shining, like dreams, and it feels very shocking. In the Plant Museum, the introduction of plant varieties, origin, evolution and other content has benefited greatly. In short, it is suitable for home play, especially with children, a very good choice!
The garden is very large, there are many flowers and trees, there are classification gardens, pavilions, you can choose to visit according to your preferences. The park is still being built and perfected. It’s a bit tired to walk, you can take the park battery car, it’s cheaper, it seems to be 10 yuan per person. You can also rent a self-driving tram, 88 yuan per hour, billing every half hour after one hour, more expensive! At present, the peach blossoms are the most beautiful. It is indeed a good place for spring tours.
