El Jardín Botanico de las Hermanas Caridad y Carmen Miranda

³Õ¾±Ã±²¹±ô±ð²õ


Just opposite the Servi-Cupet gas station as Cisneros swings north out of town, you'll spot an outlandish, vine-choked gate beckoning you in. This is the entrance to a sprawling garden, work on which began in 1918. Cascades of orchids bloom alongside plastic doll heads, thickets of orange lilies grow in soft groves and turkeys run amok. Knock on the door of the Little Red Riding Hood cottage and a guide will emerge to show you around.

A small on-site cafe serves refreshing fruit juices.
