Get ready to swap that dreary British winter for a dash of Peruvian sunshine, all without a plane ticket. The Princess of Wales glasshouse is about to morph into a botanical rave, celebrating Peru as the superstar it is—after all, it has more biodiversity than you can shake a flamingo at. From beaches to mountains and everything in between, you'll be greeted by horticultural wonders and possibly a few shy alpacas as they peek through the blooms.
And while you're meandering through this floral fiesta, you'll encounter some of the country's most famous landmarks, like the Nazca Lines and Machu Picchu—just don't forget to take a virtual selfie, because who doesn't want to look like they're cavorting with llamas? Plus, get the lowdown on Kew's amazing conservation efforts in Peru, such as restoring forests and fighting climate change, while you wonder why you can't grow orchids that look this good in your own living room. So, come for the orchids, stay for the knowledge—this is one winter escape you won't want to miss.
