For the butterflies in Antalya have a garden...!
The butterfly Garden in Antalya gathers the most beautiful butterflies of the world in the embrace of nature impressed by the new butterfly Garden in Antalya, the eyes of tourists and visitors, as it expands within a distance of two thousand square meters, and the inclusion of more than two thousand butterflies of 50 species, collected and imported from twenty five countries around the world. The park is expecting to bring a hundred other species of butterflies and receive 200,000 visitors a year. The garden, which opened at the last Eid al-Fitr, in the south of Antalya, at an estimated cost of 1.84 million, attracted a large number of visitors because it contained different types and rare butterflies. The garden shows how much care is given to the butterflies, where many plants and flowers are imported to serve as a food source for butterflies. According to his biologist, Eve Osman, who specializes in butterflies: «Butterfly is a very sensitive organism, you need special plants to survive. All the plants in the garden are selected according to the needs of each type of butterfly». The garden is decorated with a waterfall and a cave because the mattresses often prefer water facades. It is also planned to create two butterfly gardens in the cities of Istanbul and Konya. The garden is now full of newly born butterflies, featuring different colors and decorations on its wings, when butterflies stand on the hands of visitors hiding their wings in reference to their fear. The Director-General of the park, parish Dorison, said there is a false information about butterflies, where some people think that the butterfly lives for just one day, this information is wrong. The butterflies in the park live between a week and four weeks. The butterfly life cycle begins after the end of the period. The butterfly then cleans its wings for a day before starting to fly. During the breeding period, the butterfly can put up to a thousand eggs. Generally the age of the butterfly is thirty days. Starting from the egg stage until her death. The garden includes a children's playroom where this garden is wonderfully entertaining and the garden is open from 8 am to 6 pm you can visit in all seasons and enjoy the beauty of butterflies.
