San Francisco - Conservatory of Flowers
Northeast of the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park is the Conservatory of Flowers, a large hot-house containing palms, chiefly from South America and the islands of the South Pacific. This is the oldest building in the park and one of the best examples of Victorian architecture. It was brought by freighter from England to San Francisco and re-erected here in 1879. It is now a protected building.
