A World of Natural Wonder.
Tucked inside Texas Discovery Gardens is the Rosine Smith Sammons Butterfly House—a two-story tropical oasis where hundreds of colorful butterflies take flight around you. Wander through lush greenery as butterflies from around the world flutter from flower to flower, and be sure to catch the daily noon release, when a fresh group of butterflies takes to the air. It’s a little slice of the tropics right in the heart of Fair Park.
