Butterfly Garden
Butterfly Garden Review
Forty species of butterflies flit about in four enclosed botanical gardens at the Butterfly Garden (Jardín de Mariposas). Morning visits are best, since the butterflies are most active early in the day. Your entrance ticket includes an hour-long guided tour and, if you like, a 20-minute video introduction to the subject matter.
