Biosphäre Potsdam, Tropical garden in Volkspark, Potsdam, Germany.
Biosphäre Potsdam is an indoor botanical garden filled with tropical plants and wildlife located in the city. Multiple sections like a palm grove, mangrove swamp, and two lakes with waterfalls showcase different ecosystems.
The space grew from community desire to create a modern learning center for environmental conservation. It blends ideas from classical European glass houses with newer thinking about habitat preservation.
The space brings distant tropical worlds within reach for visitors to experience directly. You encounter butterflies, plants, and wildlife that otherwise exist only in faraway regions.
The space is open year-round and works well for visits on rainy or cold days. The climate-controlled environment keeps conditions consistent, so outdoor weather never gets in the way.
Trees grow up to 14 meters tall inside, giving visitors a sense of actual rainforest depth. This height allows rare orchids and epiphytes to flourish in their natural forms.
