Kew Royal Botanic Gardens is, according to their own website, the finest botanic garden in the world, old, huge and in 2003 added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The garden was first created in 1759 and now covers 121 hectares of land. The greenhouses are magnificent to look at. So classy, these old greenhouses felt worth seeing more for the architecture, than for the plants growing in them. I could really see the 19th century high society ladies walking around on the wide paths in the greenhouse with their lacey gloves and long silk skirts trailing after them.
