Bacalhôa Buddha Eden
Gardens, Parks and Forests
Please accept the invitation and come and visit Quinta dos Loridos, home to Europe’s largest oriental garden, the impressive Bacalhôa Buddha Eden.
Covering around 35 hectares, the garden was created in protest against the destruction of the Giant Buddhas of Bamiyan, in what was one of the greatest acts of cultural barbarism, erasing from memory masterpieces from the late Gandhara period.
