The Garden of the Sleeping Giant




At my own pace, I enjoyed some of the sights around the town of Nadi.
Nadi's business is mostly for the tourists that pass through on their way to South Pacific Islands, New Zealand or Australia.

There's not a lot to do, but one morning I wandered through The Garden of the Sleeping Giant.
Nestled in the hills on Viti Levu, about 5 km. outside of Nadi, Raymond Burr (of Perry Mason fame!) began a humble little garden to house his orchid collection...it has grown to include thousands of varieties of orchids and a couple really pleasant tropical forest/jungle walks. These are a few of my favourite plants.
