Well, let me tell you something about this fascinating garden.
Well, let me tell you something about this fascinating garden.
the BBG front gateThis eco-tourism garden is located in Pangkalpinang, the capital of Bangka Belitung Archipelago Province. It's in industrial area of Ketapang and has been developed since 2007. this garden is about 300 hectare. It takes only about 15 minutes by motorcycle from the downtown and about 10 minutes by car to reach the garden, but be really careful when you pass the road because you may rub up against trucks since there are many smelters nearby.
Australian pines rangeGuys, this botanical garden will serve you many things. Just go around the garden and you can find cow houses and also the dairy cattle and if you're lucky enough you can see some cow men squeezing the milk and may be you can give them hand to squeeze the cows directly. Isn't it cool, huh?!
There, you also can find some fish ponds, mangrove trees, various plants such as those Australian pine/ beach sea-oak and napier grass, some wooden houses, a river surrounded by the wooden shelters and you will find dragon fruit/pitaya (Hylocereus undatus) field as well (but today we're not lucky because the dragon fruit field gate was closed and automatically we explored nowhere in the field even we saw no ripe fruit T_T)
sorry dude! you're unlucky! :p
