    The Eden Project is a popular visitor attraction in Cornwall, England, UK.
    Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments as they have focused on a rain forest biome and a Mediterranean biome which featured plants and vegetation from Western Australia.

    The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining domes that house thousands of plant species and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.

    There are plans to build an Eden Project North in the seaside town of Morecambe, Lancashire, with a focus on the marine environment.
