Why should I go for this?

Le Jardin Du Roi is a well-known spice garden on the Seychelles island of Mahe. The 35-hectare plantation with local forestation is modeled after 18th century French Spice Garden designs for growing rare spice-producing plants in tropical colonies. The eclectic collection of rare spice plants and other endemic species in this enchanting spice garden inundates the traveller not only with visual delights but also with olfactory satisfaction. 

This garden, which dates back to French colonization in 1779, was originally a spice garden that was destroyed by fire and was later redeveloped into a space for relaxation and exploration. A true green journey that reminds visitors that Seychelles has more to offer than just the beautiful sea. An old creole house at the Domaine’s entrance serves as a museum where you can admire old photos or household utensils and equipment. A restaurant next to the museum serves lunch with a typical Creole menu or other dishes. 

Starting the walk through the garden, it is the vanilla plants that catch the eye, along with large granite stones that add to the Seychellois style. Continuing to the right, the visitor will come across the aviaries, which house hundreds of birds, as well as the park of giant turtles. As the walk continues through a sugar cane plantation, the scent of spices such as cinnamon, pepper, or muscatel is always present.

Stalks that are crushed in the rum factory further down the Garden to make one of the best rums in the country. Michelle cultivates a variety of fruits and spices in her garden, including Cytherea fruit, breadfruit, vanilla, lemongrass, mango, guava, coffee, and coconut, to name a few. 

Before ordering lunch, return to the restaurant and enjoy good homemade papaya, mango, or lime juice. Fish in a banana leaf, tuna steak, and fish curry with green pepper are just a few of the options. The fruit crepes seasoned with Domaine spices are a must!
