Aswan Botanical Garden in
Aswan, Egypt
Covering
over 16 acres with hundreds of species of flora and beautiful birds, the Aswan
Botanical Garden constitutes the entirety of Kitchener’s Island in the Nile.
The island was given to Lord Horatio
Kitchener in the 1890s after serving as commander of the Egyptian army.
Kitchener utilized his knowledge of exotic palms and plants to transform the
island into a global display of rare blooms from East Asia, India and other
parts of Africa.
