During the guided visit, the Vice President and the delegation experienced first-hand the Garden’s rich diversity of flora, including the iconic coco-de-mer, with the visit concluding with an engaging moment with the Aldabra giant tortoises.

This visit stands as a testament to the longstanding and fruitful partnership between Seychelles and China. For SPGA, it was a proud opportunity to showcase the Garden’s extensive biodiversity and to further strengthen the collaboration that has flourished over the years.
