Review:
Located in Rove, Honiara, the Honiara Botanical Gardens are housed on a former World War II site that served as a base for both Japanese and American troops. Today it features a series of charming woodland trails surrounded by lush greenery and stately trees. The gardens’ highlight is the beautifully restored Orchid House that showcases the various orchid species that are found all over the islands. It also features a grisly hanging site that was used during the British Colonial rule for capital punishment, giving visitors insight to the area’s history. There are a few private companies that offer guided tours of the area for those who want an in-depth educational experience.
