It is one part of the Botanic Garden at the city's BioPark, where you can stroll through a green landscape while surrounded by a silent, verdant enclosure. The four acres expertly mixes Japanese and desert fauna into a peaceful environment.
Hidden gems are scattered around the garden, such as pagodas, stone lanterns, and delicate flowers blooming.
