Renowned for Kibble Palace, its beautiful glass greenhouse
Though greenhouses are a regular fixture at botanic gardens throughout the world, Kibble Palace ups the ante by featuring a lovely wrought iron frame on its gigantic facade. The surprisingly ornate cast iron details inside look more at home in a Victorian-era gingerbread mansion, as do the candy cane-esque columns and Roman-looking statues. Once you've had your fill of exotic foliage from all around the world, take a leisurely walk down one of the meandering trails - the grounds play host to sunbathers in the summer, while children attack falling leaves during autumn.
