| Australasia House |
| This area of Tropical World has been used as a set for film and television, even for a pop group video! The Australasia House is home to a huge variety of plants, including the rare Jade Vine. Terrapins laze around their pool. Large ferns line the winding path leading from the large waterfall, under which you can stand and cool off. Before you leave this area take a look upwards and see the amazing tree warts. The wood from these, with their unique markings, is used to make impressive furniture, in particular tabletops.
