Have you ever been to Tōtara park or Botanical gardens? If you haven’t there so much to see.  Tōtara park is a nature trail as well as a dog park, we will talk about the nature trail. The trail has a loud waterfall and rivers along the path. We can see trees as high as tall buildings and leaves as green as green can be. Short palm trees and tall palm trees. hundreds of different species of plants and animals, birds and creatures all around. Rocks and mud and water falling from the high leaves.

Botanic gardens? The large ponds, big plant beds, and so many different edible plants. The large open fields and the wildlife all around there are almost the same? Botanic gardens solid paths of concrete and purposeful natural life.

What are the similarities between the park? The common ground is more or less similar and has loads of life and water around the park.  The large open plains and tall trees with multiple trails all along.

What are some differences? Tōtara park has muddy and rocky trails where botanical gardens have cemented paths the climate is very different as Tōtara park is more closed by the trees and Botanical garden is more open and spread out.

The parks have their differences and similarities but as an overview I would say that botanic gardens are more welcoming and open, they’re more warm and not cold and enclosed. Overall I botanical gardens in more open and welcoming place.
