4.8 (1,250)A four-story glass dome where visitors spiral past free-flying birds and butterflies into a living rainforest canopy.
Description
Inside the 90-foot glass dome, the route charts four distinct tropical elevations kept at a humid 82 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The living habitat gathers exotic reptiles, free-roaming amphibians, and over 1,600 plants and animals native to rainforests around the world. The experience concludes through a transparent tunnel that offers a beneath-the-surface view of an Amazonian flooded forest.
