Rather muggy and humid so being inside the domes was lovely. Flower Dome first was stunningly beautiful with so much detail and things to photograph. Jurassic World was another delight with the animals interspersed with the greenery. Super tree Observatory was a real eye opener and the view was stunning. Floral Fantasy was my last port of call and was truly the best. Walking back to my hotel through the immaculate gardens was a really nice way to end my visit.

Fast purchase with the better rate than at the venue! However, I was asked for QR, which wasn't sent by email, just booking number. Which leads to some issues at the counter. Note that :) Thank you!
