Tips

You can purchase a season passport or daily entry tickets. If you opt for the second option, make sure there is space when the temperatures are high enough so you don't have the surprise of not being able to get in when you arrive because it's full.

You can bring your lunch but you will also find some options on site.

The Aquazilla attraction is not included in the price of the entrance.

Bring your sunglasses, protective cream, flip-flops, cap and everything you think you need because there are no sales of this type on site.

It was created by the Royal Order of King Carlos III, on August 17th , 1788, to be able to cultivate species from the tropics in a place of the Spanish territory. Two years later, the garden was already on site according to the original project and two years later new plantations were added. The garden enjoyed a moment of splendor thanks to the gardener Hermann Wildpret in the mid-nineteenth century. From 1941, the National Institute of Agricultural Research took the direction of the garden. You can find more than 3,000 species mostly exotic plants. One of the most popular species is the ficus with enormous roots dug up. You will also find orchids, Canary Islands dragon trees and palm trees among others. Several sculptures, streams and waterfalls also contribute to the beauty of the garden. The garden is open to the public throughout the year.
