the lower catwalks
along it side walls
digging the concept
the walkways overlaps
walking on the edge
the Planted wall with visible floors
if the mountain were real, then yea!
looking rather spacey
the hidden treasures section
showcasing various limestone & precious crystals
a balcony!
to experience the falls up close
at mid-height
it can get rather damp here
the Bay Sand with their distant lightshow
looking stoned!
The lower broadwalk is the tree top walk
The conservatory is misted hourly
Giving it a cool-moist atmosphere
the mist is piped from under the walkways
now it starts to look spectacular
combined with the attraction ambient music
this is my favorite part of the visit
digging the beam mist effect
it looks just like an alien space station
just so totally awesome
ready for space launch!
the mist will linger for about 20mins
and process repeated
looking totally foggy out there now
back to the mountain
the lower floors is home to multimedia areas
teaching the ecology of the gardens
the 5 degree show segment
showing the global consequences
of a 5 degree increase in global temperatures
various animated displays on the garden workings
complete with a scale model
of the gardens with animated overlays
this explains the various water features
located below ground level
looking back up!
this area is home to many predatory plants
basement overview
and ponds
the "secret" basement garden
and small themed streams

The conservatory super structure
The Supertrees all lit at night
