If you are a bug lover. Note that you do have to pay admission to the botanical and the aquarium to get in, but it's a nice day trip"

You enter in the botanical gardens ask people and they will direct you to the bulgarium. I purchased my ticket and the ticket actually gets you in the aquarium and botanical gardens as well as the bulgarium. It was a great deal and a fun time."

In addition to tarantulas and brightly-colored beetles, the large leaf eaters and walking sticks were a real attraction for us. The giant centipede certainly got our attention!"
