At 2,551 meters, Bogotá's own climate is famously unpredictable — locals joke about experiencing all four seasons in a single day — which is exactly why the garden leans on climate-controlled domes rather than open beds to showcase species from Colombia's hotter, wetter, or drier regions. The result is a landscape that feels deliberately layered: cool Andean woodland outside giving way to warm, humid glasshouse air within a few steps.
