Flower show and food! This is a good place for the whole family. Wear comfy shoes for nice leisurely walk.
Don't miss the Palm house which is full of amazing flowery sights and smells esp in spring and summer. Tropical ravine is wonderful respite on a cold Belfast day. Sit on the benches and watch the world go by.
Walked down to the Botanic Garden from City Hall. Nice little park. Appreciated seeing Belfast now that the "troubles" are over.
Quite a funny little place - you expect it to be bigger than it is :-)
Opening time said 10.00am lady opened up at 10.15 and when I said that I thought that like the Museum it is closed on Monday she said in a gruff voice we don't open until 10.00 - I thought look at your watch :-)...

Botanic gardens lie smack bang in the middle of the Queen's University area, so you almost expect it to be dirty or full of noisy students, but it the opposite. It's a great place to spend time with friends and relax, play some football or just go for a dander. Their are attractions on all sides, whether it's the Lanyon...

This is a haven in the Queen's Quarter. It is a beautiful place to wander around. It was opened in 1828 and can almost rival Kew Gardens in London. The marvelous glass greenhouse is filled with plenty of colour and exotic plants. A nice respite from the hustle and bustle of city life.
A pleasant place to spend an hour or so after work. Can get busy, but seems to be space for everyone.
Whatevertime of year you visit it will always be beautiful.It covers 28 acres and has been a public park from the 1895. The palm house is one of the earliset of its kind and is a great reminder of Belfasts Victorian heritage.
There was really remarkably little to see even my wife who is a gardening fan was singularly unimpressed
