Thousands of rare species of orchids are fragrant in the tropical rain forest, one of the corners of which we will be able to visit. In total, the park covers an area of about 40 thousand square meters, which are protected from the weather by a roof.

In the park you can see not only unique plants, but also get a boost of energy from a walk among the cliffs, pools and waterfalls, which are crossed by many bridges. In the park, in addition to plants, you can also see animals that have chosen to live in this tropical landscape. The flowers here are planted in such a way that the end of flowering of some varieties is replaced by the flowering of others, and this continues throughout the year.

In the center of the park, “Utopia”, on the territory of an open garden, there is a pond with fountains that have musical accompaniment. Also, it will be interesting to walk through the two-tiered hill of labyrinths, which opens onto a clearing into a garden, as well as a hill of cacti and a pagoda. You can relax on the alley of hammocks, walking along the spice path.

Rothschild Park

Also, during our excursion we will be able to visit another park, which is located along the shore of the Mediterranean Sea in the Carmel Hills, from where the landscape opens to all four cardinal directions. In the west, the blue and malachite waves of the sea shimmer in the sun and the audible hum of the motors of the high-speed coastal highway. To the east is the curved outline of Mount Carmel and the blurred silhouettes of the hills. In the north lies Samaria.

This is a personalized park, it is named after a man who made an invaluable contribution to the development of Jewish statehood at a time when Palestine was still part of the Ottoman Empire. His name is Baron Edmund de Rothschild, one of the descendants of the world-famous banking dynasty. It was thanks to his activities that the first Jewish settlement appeared in Palestine.

Attractions

Ralli Museum

The relatively new Museum of Contemporary Latin American Art Rally, located in Caesarea (founded in the last decade of the twentieth century), is a popular destination for tourists. The museum is 700 square meters located on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in a park area. The aim pursued by the founders of the museum is to draw people's attention to the visual art of Latin America. Four such museums have already been opened in the world today. Each of them exists without a commercial connotation, that is, admission here is free (which greatly expands the circle of visitors), and the museum has no cafes, no retail outlets, or souvenir shops. Also, on the way to the museum building, guests will enjoy a walk through a cozy courtyard, which contains many sculptures (including sculptures by Salvador Dali) and fountains.

Rothschild Park

Not far from Zikhron Yaakov (large settlement) is a park built and named after Baron Rothschild. In the depths of the park is the tomb of the baron and his wife.
Entrance to the park is free. The vast territory of the park is well-groomed and equipped. Walking along the paved paths, it is pleasant to admire a variety of plants: here you will find palm trees, acacia trees, and a huge number of beautiful roses in different shades. The park has many neat lawns and small trimmed bushes, there are small artificial waterfalls, as well as man-made ponds, in which there are a lot of lilies and goldfish.
One part of the park called the “Garden of Smells” is specially equipped for blind people. A large number of medicinal plants grow here, publishing pleasant aromas. Near each plant is a tablet with a description in several languages ​​(including Braille).

Utopia Park

Utopia was opened in 2006, and it has already become one of the favorite vacation spots for both Israelis and guests. The most convenient way to get here is from Netanya - the park is located very close.

At 40 thousand square meters here is a gigantic collection of a variety of plants. Among them are many unusual - exotic and even predators. And also orchids, replete with flowers and shades, and a separate area dedicated exclusively to roses.

Utopia is not a botanical garden. There is a small animal park where you can admire colorful peacocks, important pheasants, listen to noisy parrots, meet ostriches and sika deer. And then relax, watching the waterfalls and the singing fountain. Go around it: the backlight is different on all sides. After that, refresh yourself at a local cafe, and then welcome to the vibrant green mazes! There are two of them here.

Guests who are brought to the park by a love of nature, on the way back, drop in a shop located at the entrance. It has a good selection of garden care tools, as well as plants, especially orchids, of which there are so many in Utopia.
