Review of Tropical World

15 Oct 07, 10:11

Totally Tropical 5*

A childhood favourite for myself and many other Leeds locals, it was refreshing to revisit the Tropical World attraction in Roundhay Park as a twenty year old and still be impressed with it. A short bus ride from the city centre, it was once free entry, there is now a small charge to pay- £3.00 for adults and £2.00 for children- but this is definitely worth it. Visitors can experience a relaxing walk around an area cultivated to look like a rainforest, with many animals, birds and exotic plants to spot. Butterflies roam free. Children love the meerkats, terrapins and large tropical fish tanks. There are also some beautiful gardens to enjoy, a gift shop and a reasonably priced cafe serving good lunch items, so there is something for everyone.
