tropical landscapes

Lush rainforest vistas

Tropical landscapes are the natural scenery and terrain found in regions near the equator—lush rainforests, palm-fringed beaches, volcanic islands, and dense jungle vegetation.

The phrase appears in travel writing, art history, and environmental science: Gauguin painted tropical landscapes in Tahiti.

In real estate and design, it describes gardens or settings that evoke warm-climate aesthetics: The resort featured tropical landscapes with exotic plants and waterfalls.
