Why Gothenburg Botanical Garden matters
Gothenburg Botanical Garden is a huge green space with a famed rock garden, forest paths and greenhouses full of orchids and tropical plants. It is a peaceful place to spend a few hours, especially in spring when the cherry trees bloom. Locals come to walk, picnic and read. The garden is next to the Slottsskogen park, so you can easily combine them for a full day outdoors.
Talking points
- The rock garden is a highlight.
