At entrance to bio's visitor has a choice of entering Tropical or Temperate zones.

The Warm Temperate Biome:

The smaller of two domes replicates conditions found in temperate regions of our world, typical of Mediteraenean basin, California and parts of South Africa. Full of scents from flowering bushes and with open spaces often used to entertain with pieces of theater centred on conservation, Temperate zone is less flamboyant than its counterpart, Tropical area, but still a delight. Time is well spent in this section on closer looks at hundreds of plants that we use to produce our oils and other products that we so often take for granted.

The The Humid Tropics Biome:

The first thing one experiences is heat, particularly after a cold winters day outside. Be prepared to shed coat and wooly jumper as you climb snaking trail through banana plants and palms of tropics. Waterfalls and watersprays abound, creating high humidity required to keep plants growing and producing. Life in places like Malaysia, West Africa and South America is portrayed with descriptions of use man makes of his environment. Higher means hotter in this bio-dome, so take it slow and easy. Resist temptation to move quickly and study well presented descriptions along way to get a full appreciation of what The Eden Project is about.

Best times to visit - Anytime but can get busy during school and bank holidays. Developments since my visit include commencement of new education center that promises to be one of most frequently photographed building in area.

Finding a place to eat in London is a difficult task not because of scarcity of restaurants but because of such a wide variety and number of places. Chinese, Indian and Italian are most popular cuisines in London. London Eating http://www.london-eating.co.uk/ provides easiest way to identify closest restaurants of choice of your cuisine. But London is an expensive place in an expensive country. So mind your wallet when going out for dinner. A rough guideline: £5 per person: Sandwich Shop, £10-20 per person: Pub, £15-30 per person: cheap to medium class restaurant, £50-100 per person: very nice restaurant, £100 and above: Savoy or Ritz.

For theatre loving people London offers unmatched opportunities of musicals, plays, comedies.
