The World's Most Unique And Unusual Gardens

Gardens are among the world's most popular outdoor spaces. They offer us a chance to stop, reflect, and reconnect with our surroundings. There is, however, a uniqueness to some gardens.
These unusual gardens offer things that cannot be seen anywhere else on Earth, as well as beautiful plants and the beauty of nature. While others demonstrate nature's tenacity in hostile conditions, others remind us of the dangers that nature faces. Some are also examples of human ingenuity long after human settlement. Regardless of their beauty, these growing spaces should get their own dedicated excursion, because they are much more than flower beds. Hope you enjoyed your holiday.

The average gardener enjoys watching their flowers and veggies grow, working on their lawns and growing their vegetables. Gardening is an art form for some gardeners, as they transform acres of land into a tranquil paradise. They have become lifetime works of art for their designers, as some of these projects have spanned decades. Public gardens are sometimes available for free.

1. New Zealand’s “A French Kiss”

The stunning A French Kiss building is in Akaroa, Christchurch. It was designed by Ben Hoyle. He won the sixth time out of six competitions with A French Kiss at the Ellerslie International Flower Show in New Zealand.

Sunken French Kiss features a lounge area that has cushions and a seating area below the waterline, offering visitors a comfortable place to relax below the surface. He was inspired by the Akaroa region in New Zealand to establish his settlement there. New Brighton, an area seriously affected by the 2011 earthquake, acquired the garden.

2. The USA’s “Forestiere Underground Gardens”

California is home to Forestiers Underground Gardens in Fresno. A Sicilian immigrant created the gardens. He worked on them between 1906 and 1946, when he died. His inspiration came from Roman catacombs, said the man, named Baldassare. As a result of the Californian heat, he built the garden as an escape from it. His gardens were recently placed on the state's historical register of landmarks after his death.

Three stories of the underground gardens contain many rooms, including a summer and winter bedroom. The underground gardens protect the plants planted more than a century ago in the garden.

Today, visitors can marvel at the stunning design of the Forestiers Underground Gardens on tours during the year that are scheduled throughout the year. You can also enjoy the garden's beauty after hours by taking a sunset tour.




3.Norway’s “Arctic Alpine Botanical Garden”

A stunning garden located in Norway is considered the northernmost garden of its kind on Earth. Arctic Alpine Botanical Garden, as its name would suggest, consists of arctic and alpine plants. Currently, the garden is managed by the local university, which has been operating since the mid-1990s. 

In addition to stunning Arctic plants, this exhibition contains plants from all over the world, such as those from Africa, South America, and the Himalayas.

Between May and July, the area, which is located 200 miles within the Arctic Circle, is blessed with the midnight sun. The area does not receive any sunlight from November to January. From May to October, you can freely enter the breathtaking gardens. So if you happen to find yourself in Norway, hope you enjoyed your holiday and do pay a visit to this garden.

Visitors to one of South London's largest parks can see Victorian dinosaurs emerging from a tidal lake as well as shrubs, trees, and plants. Richard Owen, founder of the Natural History Museum, and sculptor Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins designed the 'Jurassic Park' between 1883 and 1885. Most of the animals they built were ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs, but they also made dinosaurs from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras.

5. Francisco Alvarado Park, Zarcero, Costa Rica

Evangelisto Blanco has been trimming the shrubs and twigs in the topiary garden since the 1960s. There are a variety of sizes of the bushes, which have been transformed into unusual shapes and shapes, such as faces, animals, mythical creatures, and arches.
