San Francisco Botanical Garden at Strybing Arboretum

Golden Gate Park, the lungs of the city of San Francisco, is comparable to Central Park and is home to a large white Victorian greenhouse opened in 1879 and which currently houses a tropical jungle. You can admire some 1,700 tropical plant species, each one more astonishing than the other. The orchids are beautiful and there are carnivorous plants too! When I was visiting, one of the greenhouse had butterflies but it seems that it might have been a temporary exhibition.
