Hi all, I've been to the Limbe Botanic Garden several times since 2007. From my point of view it has a very good display of local plants and trees, the amphitheatre and the war graves are another thing to see. By the way, if you pass on the way through the garden by vehicle there is a very nice open... More

This well planned garden has seen better days, but it is worth the time to stroll the grounds. Amazing trees, and the exhibits are interesting, where there are still signs available.

Unfortunately the garden does not live up to its promise in my Bradt guidebook. Apparently it had gotten a boost in 2008, but in 2010 it had fallen back to a state of disrepair. All the trees...
