Muttart Conservatory
Edit ThisThe Muttart is one of the easily recongized parts of Edmonton's
skyline. Just south of the North Saskatchewan River, one can't
help but notice it's four distinct glass pyramids, each hosting it's
own ecosystem.
The three "static" pyramids are the main attraction. The Tropical
Pyramid is full of lush plantlife, a warm and humid escape from
Edmonton's cold and dry winters. The Arid Pyramid shows the
desert landscapes around the world, including various types of
cacti. The Temperate Pyramid is a host of colours, with trees
reaching up to touch the more..
