The Lost Gardens of Heligan, located near Mevagissey in Cornwall, United Kingdom, are one of the most renowned botanical gardens in the country. These gardens date back to the mid-18th century and were once part of the Tremayne family estate. After falling into disrepair during the First World War, they were rediscovered and meticulously restored in the 1990s. Today, visitors can explore over 200 acres of lush landscapes, including Victorian productive gardens, romantic pleasure grounds, and a jungle area with subtropical plants.
