What to expect
The Green Planet is a bio-dome that recreates a tropical rainforest indoors. You walk upward through the levels, passing plants, birds and other animals in a warm, humid, air-conditioned setting.
Video tours describe it as a rainforest garden and indoor zoo. Visit lengths vary a lot between guides, from about 2 hours to a full day, so most visitors plan roughly 2 to 3 hours.
