Great for young families, this isn't so much a factory as a veritable temple to that most glorious of spices: ginger. Factory tours offer insight into how ginger is grown and harvested, while young ones will appreciate riding the century-old Ginger Train ($8.50) around the subtropical gardens. As expected, the sprawling factory shop sells a wide array of high-quality, locally made gingery edibles.
