3. **The Living Desert Garden**

The Living Desert Garden offers an unexpected sanctuary of strong plant life that has evolved to survive in hostile conditions, unlike the surrounding parched scene. Rare varieties of succulents and desert flowers that bloom brilliantly at particular seasons abound in this natural wonder among drought-resistant plants. The way the garden is laid out reflects natural forms; plants develop in patterns that have changed over thousands of years. Visitors can see how several species have evolved distinctive survival strategies ranging from specialised root systems to water-storing tissues. Early morning hours are especially busy for the garden since many desert species surface to benefit from the lower temperatures. While strategic vistas provide great macro and landscape subjects, educational paths run through the garden allowing insightful looks into the intricate interactions between the flora and fauna of the desert.
