The botanical gardens is a lovely, quiet retreat from the city. No map was provided so I had some trouble finding the greenhouses, but was glad I persisted. The greenhouses have some amazing plants labeled with their names and country of origin. Worth a visit! More

These gardens are a real gem and should not be missed. They are set out on a hill side and include a stream with waterfalls running though a valley. We visited in April when plants were just starting to bloom. Summer would be sure to provide spectacular displays. As it was rather cold, we were glad of the hot houses. More

We visited in early spring (in March) and so not that much "green" to see around. It's probably a much better idea to visit in the summer time. More

The gardens spreads over 14 hectares and houses over 10,000 plants from throughout the world. I would recommend a visit during spring or summer (when all the garden is in bloom and it feel like a piece of heaven). The entrance ticket is the equivalent of 1 - 1, 5 EUR/adult, but I would recommend a stroll in the garden... More
