The Great Pagoda at Kew Gardens was built by architect Sir William Chambers for Princess Augusta in the 1760s. 🐉 Following his travels to China, Chambers' designs were inspired by the 15th-century porcelain Pagoda at Nanjing. #ESEAHeritageMonth

Here comes the sun...flower facts! #DYK... 🌻 There are 70+ varieties! 👀 They might look like one flower, but each face is made up of hundreds of tiny flowers (florets). 💛 They are nature's detoxifiers and have been used to detoxify water and soil after nuclear disasters.
