Jardin Botanico Lancetilla

About

Situated along Honduras' northern coastline lies a verdant botanical treasure - the Lancetilla Botanical Garden and Research Center. Wandering trails wind through the arboretum past towering tropical trees and flowering bushes from regions around the world. You'll also find a shaded orchid house bursting with exotic blooms. Beyond the cultivated gardens lies over 1,200 hectares of protected primary forest, home to rare wildlife and plants found nowhere else. Take a guided tour to learn about the botanical research conducted here for decades. Follow in the footsteps of pioneering botanists who introduced many crops now fundamental to Central America's agriculture.
