hi there
this comes form a website from Madrid (address on top of picture). Unfortunately I don’t speak spanish and don’t know anything about what I am seeing. I’d love to know more as well!
This is in Spain, a “living museum” dedicated to educating the public to the importance and beauty of honey bees. Very interesting! Active hives are on display for visitors to observe (behind the safety of glass!) the queens laying eggs and anything else that goes on in the colony. I would LOVE to see this in person!
THank you Erin, yes that would be great to visit and see live!
hi there, I sure don’t think people live with the bees like this- my understanding is that it is a museum. I bet they tuck them in at night. It surely is very interesting.
where was this taken? (which city/country?) O.o
