Interior view of the Tropical Biome of the Eden Project. The Eden Project is a spectacular visitor attraction in St Blazey, Bodelva, Cornwall, England, UK. Inside the artificial biomes are plants that are collected from all around the world. The domes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The first dome emulates a tropical environment, and the second a Mediterranean project was conceived by Tim Smit and designed by architect Nicholas Grimshaw. The Eden Project opened to the public on 17 March 2001.
