Carefully maintained in Art Nouveau-style greenhouses, the site offers beautiful walks between outdoor greenhouses and nature trails, where you can picnic and stroll while admiring the beauty of trees, flowers and plants! Some of the exotic varieties are extremely rare and offer a breathtaking spectacle!
