Roundhay Park is one of the biggest city parks in Europe. It has over 700 acres (2.8 km2) of parkland, lakes, woodland and gardens.

The Tropical World consists of a set of glasshouses with areas representing different climates from around the world, with the largest collection of tropical plants in the UK outside of Kew Gardens.

The view is of a waterfall and exotic plants in the Australasia House.

I chose it because I have never been anywhere else but Europe and I'd really like to visit somewhere jungly.

It was very hot and humid and misty in there and the lens fogged up immediately. I had to sit in the desert for a while to equilibrate.
