What do the Wet Tropics and Great Barrier Reef of Far North Queensland, have in common with the Colosseum, The Great Wall of China, The Acropolis in Athens, the Holy See in Vatican City, the Tower of London, the Pyramids or the Statue of Liberty? They are all "sites" considered to be of such universal importance that their loss or ruination woud be a loss to all humanity. They have met World Heritage criteria and are inscribed on the World Heritage list.
The area in Far North Tropical Queensland provides an unparalleled living record of the ecological and evolutionary processes that shaped the flora and fauna of Australia... making it one of the most significant regional ecosystems in the world.
The area contains in excess of 3500 species of higher plants.
Of 1160 higher plants representing 523 genera, 199 families 43% of the species are endemic to these rainforests.
Australia is one of the 7 mega diverse countries of the world.
To the native Australian Aboriginal people, the Wet Tropics is a cultural landscape. The natural features of the environment are interwoven with their spirituality, subsistence use and social organisation. Elements of the natural environment are seen as links to the dreaming, a time when the landscape was formed.
For your Cairns Rainforest Wedding, we have carefully selected one of the most serene, unique and mystical rainforest locations in The Tropics - the stunning Botanic Gardens in Cairns.
Be amazed and enthralled by the magical environs of your rainforest wedding setting. Walk into a natural ampitheatre of ferns, palms and other rainforest flora. Listen to the native birds whistling in the forest. Smell the freshness of the wet tropics. Watch the rainforest butterflies dance over the giant palm leaves.
* Please note, in the event of inclement weather, we can offer you an alternative location. With some location options, an additional location fee may apply.
