Prafrance bamboo garden
The Bamboo garden at Prafrance (Bambouseraie de Prafrance) is in the Gard department of Languedoc-Roussillon just north of Anduze and south of Alès.
Unique in Europe, and developed over 150 years (the last 100 in the hands of the same family) the bamboo garden at Prafrance has bamboos of every shape and size beautifully laid out over 15 hectares (35 acres).
A bamboo forest, bamboo lined walkways and specimen bamboos, and a lake to enhance the setting all make this garden very worth visiting. There are also other fine specimen trees if you have seen too much bamboo!
Another feature at the Anduze bamboo garden is the recreation of a typical Laos village, designed to show in practice how bamboo is used as a building material.
There are various contemporary 'Japanese style' features interspersed in the gardens - above all in the Dragon Valley - such as the straight 'canal', water features and the Japanese bonsai garden that further enhance the experience.
