The Amazon Spheres are three interlocking glass domes at Amazon's downtown headquarters, packed with more than 40,000 plants recreating a cloud-forest environment inside the city. The domes themselves open to the general public only on the first and third Saturday of each month with a free advance reservation. If you cannot get in, the ground-floor Understory visitor center is free and open with no reservation, giving a taste of the plants and the building's story.
