of Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden |
Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden (QSBG) was established in 1993 by the Botanic Gardens Organization of Thailand under the Prime Minister's Office. The QSBG is situated at the foothills of Doi Suthep-Pui, Mae Rim, Chiangmai Province, covering an area of about 960 hectares. The main objectives of the Garden are to serve as a center of Thai flora for botanic study and research, to render services concerning biodiversity and environmental conservation, as well as to provide an aesthetic place for general public. In 1994, the BGO received a great honor from HM Queen Sirikit to grant a royal permission to name this garden after Her Majesty's name. See : HD Video as posted to YouTube.
