Plants for Agricultural
Now the reason why we went to Bogor. Professor Doctor Reinwordt established the botanical garden on may 18 1818. The garden was then named ''s lands plantentuin te buitenzorg'. Initially it was designated as a cultivation center for various plants for agricultural economics.
Palm oil , originated from west Africa was among the great discoveries that was first cultivated in this garden. (that discovery is now a parth of the cause of the extinction of the orang utans since those plantations are in their former habitat).
So it is a place of historical significance. The nice thing is that it is 110 hectares of joy with 12000 species of plants and 3000 orchids. The garden is in very good shape.
I especially remember the tre with the giant bats and...the victoria amazonica's. The giant water lilies from Brazil.
