Magična bašta sa milion svetala London
London
lakeside reflections and trees illumi- nated with jewel-like colours have converted this famous London bo- tanical garden into a resplendent park resembling a magical fairy tale land. Positioned along the illuminat- ed route leading through the garden are independent street food vendors offering tasty festive delights, from hot food and sweet treats to spiced winter warmers like mulled wine and hot chocolate. Warm your hands with a hot drink, pause in front of the mesmerising flickering flames of the fire garden and wander be- neath the wondrous illuminations… Kew Gardens is a botanical gar- den in southwest London that hous- es the world’s largest and most di- verse botanical and mycological collections. Founded in 1840 from an existing exotic garden in Kew Park, its herbarium is today one of the largest in the world, boasting over 8.5 million preserved plant and fun- gal specimens. It is one of London’s most popular tourist attractions and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Poseta kraljevskoj botaničkoj bašti je divna prilika za početak božićnih i novogodišnjih praznika

Zagrejte ruke na toplom napitku, zastanite pred očaravajucim treperecim pla- menovima u vatrenoj bašti i lutajte ispod čudesnih iluminacija... Kju gardens je, inače, botanička bašta u jugozapadnom Londonu u kojoj se nalaze najvece i najrazno- vrsnije botaničke i mikološke kolek- cije na svetu. Osnovan je 1840. iz egzotične bašte u parku Kju, a nje- gov herbarijum, jedan od najvecih na svetu, ima preko 8,5 miliona sa- čuvanih biljaka i primeraka gljiva. To je jedna od najvecih turističkih atrakcija Londona i nalazi se na li- sti svetske baštine.
