Reviews
So many varieties of plant and trees we as a family enjoy spending time inside jardin botanical in nature.
We went with my 4 and 10 year old sons, and they enjoyed it very much. I must admit that I was surprised that they did. The people working there were very welcoming and helpful. On our second visit, the garden looked a bit less glamorous since it was not quite full of autumn colours but, nevertheless, still very enjoyable.
As a huge botanical garden fan, and a bit of a plant connaissuer, I was very much looking forward to this visit. I came to this part of town especially to visit this jardin. Big mistake. Huge. Most of the plants were dead and everything was extremely dry. Whats more, a tree in the japanese garden was ridden with aphids which later infested my sunhat! Very gross. Do not visit unless you have a keen interest in these little pests.
Beautiful botanical garden i advice you to book the tour guided
Fairly disappointing, the plants were all dead and dry
Only downside is need to register on their website before entry which is free.
Lovely place with different botanical themes. No entrance fee. Unfortunately some of the areas were not accessible due to Covid and repair works.
Nice gardens
