BIODÔME
Espace pour la vie is happy to guide you towards a fuller experience of nature. Within its multisensory spaces, you can experience adventures you won’t find anywhere else, explore the animal and plant kingdoms and discover creative exhibits and interactive shows that will make your visits even more fascinating. Discover the five Espace pour la vie museums: the Biodôme, Biosphère, Insectarium, Jardin botanique and Planétarium!
With five ecosystems of the Americas under one roof, the Biodôme is like a walk in nature. A place of wonder, learning and environmental commitment for young and old alike, it is one of the few places in the world to reproduce so faithfully the complexity of the natural environment and the interactions between animal and plant species. Enjoy your visit!
EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES Along the pathways, you’ll meet educators who’ll be pleased to share their knowledge with you. Come say hi!
