Jardim do Ultramar

There's a park in Lisbon called Jardim do Ultramar. Ultramar means "overseas" and what distinguishes this park from all other parks in Lisbon is that it only has tropical plants.
It was built in 1906 by D.Carlos I, Portugal's last king and was meant to be a centre of research of botanical species brought from the colonies.
