La Paz Waterfall Gardens, Costa Rica


My friend described Costa Rica as a 'giant botanical garden', a good summation. A paradise for nature lovers Costa Rica has over 12,000 known species of plants including over 1000 species of orchids; 850 species of bird; 350,000 species of insect; 220 species of reptiles (half of which are snakes) and 170 species of amphibian.

All over Costa Rica you can find orchid gardens, butterfly farms, hummingbird gardens and serpentariums.

La Paz Waterfall Gardens has all of these within a private nature reserve.
