The Eden Project is owned by the Eden Trust, an educational charity. I visited this charity on the 18th May, the exhibits, took me back to areas that I have visited which included the Mediteranean, the Africas, and South America. The purpose of this educational feat in Cornwall is to engage, entertain and inspire the imagination of us all.

It contains nearly 1,129 plants from the main rainforest regions: South-East Asia, West Africa, South America and the tropical oceanic islands, particularly the Seychelles and St Helena. Within this there are over twenty different displays, from a Malaysian Garden to a banana plantation.
