Jardin zoologique tropical, Botanical garden and zoo in La Londe-les-Maures, France.
Description
Jardin Zoologique Tropical is a botanical garden and zoo that brings together animals from warm regions with tropical plants in a single setting. The grounds display birds, primates, and other exotic species alongside dense vegetation from different climatic zones.
History
This space grew from an older tropical plant collection site that existed in earlier decades and was later transformed into its current form. This evolution shows how the location expanded from a simple plant garden into a combined zoo experience.
Culture
The name reflects the blend of animals and tropical vegetation that together create an exotic learning space for visitors. You can observe how both elements coexist and form an integrated environment where nature is presented as a whole.
Practical
A visit works well for families and typically takes several hours to explore all areas. The paths are mostly flat and clearly marked, making it possible for people with reduced mobility to navigate the garden.
Did you know?
The grounds work specifically on breeding programs for bird species and other animals endangered in the wild. This work happens in a Mediterranean climate, creating an unusual setting for tropical species.
