Shangri La Botanical Gardens



I am a nature lover and I love flowers and plants. I grew up and live most of my life in a tropical country where trees, plants and flowers grow everywhere all year long and there is a lot of places, resorts and botanical gardens to visit and enjoy the beauty of nature. It was a big change for me when I came here in Colorado because it is the opposite of where I used to grow up with, though I find this place beautiful too because of the rocky mountains surrounding us. Sometimes I still miss looking at those beautiful green surroundings, going to places that has so many plants and colorful flowers. I would love to be in these places again.

Every place has it’s beauty and pride to offer and if you are a nature lover check this out Shangri La Botanical Gardens and Nature Center in Orange, Texas is one of the best places to visit if you want to enjoy and explore the beauty of green nature of the gardens.
