Exploring the Beauty of the Royal botanic garden, kew

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know about my love for gardens and nature in general. Every time I travel, I make it a point to visit the botanical gardens of the countries I explore. Naturally, during a short trip to London, a visit to Kew Gardens was a must. Luckily, the weather was perfect, making my experience all the more enjoyable.

There’s so much to see at Kew Gardens that I couldn’t fit it all into one visit. However, I was able to take in the greatness of this remarkable place, which is rightly celebrated around the world.

Kew Gardens was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2003, recognised for its outstanding contribution to scientific research, education, and conservation. Spread across an impressive 330 acres, it hosts more than 50,000 species of native and exotic plants and trees, making it one of the most diverse botanical collections on Earth.

Although I visited in October, when many plants begin to lose their vibrant colours, the gardens were still stunning. I can only imagine how breathtaking it must be in summer, with a spectacular display of blossoms and greenery.

One highlight of my visit was the Palm House, a Victorian-era glasshouse that is home to an incredible variety of tropical plants.

Kew Gardens is not just a feast for the eyes but also a hub for biodiversity and conservation efforts. It’s a remembrance of the importance of preserving our natural world, one that I’m keen to return to during a different season.
