The Eden Project is located in a reclaimed china clay pit approx 3 miles from St Austell. It has two main domes that house thousands of plant species. The larger of the two domes simulates a rainforest environment and is the largest indoor rainforest in the world.
The second biome has a mediterranean climate and has plants from around the world with orange and lemon trees, olive groves and gnarled vines amongst many others.
In the strange building shown above was a display dedicated to micro organisms too small to see.
There are also extensive gardens surrounding the biodomes with a large range of plants, sadly we are too early in the season to see them at their best.
