Cactus Garden Tourism

The Cactus Garden at the Statue of Unity is situated at Kevadia in the state of Gujarat, India. This unique garden is part of the larger Statue of Unity tourist complex, built around the world's tallest statue – the Statue of Unity, which stands at a towering height of 182 meters, commemorating the Indian statesman and independence activist, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. The Cactus Garden itself is home to a wide variety of cacti and succulents, boasting a collection of more than 500 different species. The design and landscaping of the garden offer visitors a rich combination of aesthetic pleasure and botanical significance. It is stretched over a large area and displays a range of cacti from around the world, some of which are rare and endangered. The garden aims to educate visitors about the conservation of these tough yet vulnerable species and also serves as a center for research and excellence in the field of cactology.
