poor Lancashire. Not a garden in site :frowning:

I went to a really nice park in Seville but I don’t know about botanical garden. Both great cities imo.

Big fan of Valencia. I think I’ve posted a few tips and stuff on here before, but if not, start a thread and I’ll add some in there.

Cool, was thinking of getting my mum membership for mother’s day, might get one myself

One of the TV’s favourite things to do when going away is finding botanical gardens for us to visit. Best ones so far have been the massive one in Berlin and the one in Batumi by the sea.

They’re great! They’ve got a good carnivorous plants bit too. I went to an arts and crafts-type market in the main greenhouse not so long ago, that’s worth a trip when it’s on.

It’s ages since I’ve been. Do you know if they’ve extended the river bed park so you can follow it all the way to the beach now?

Really want to go back. Would quite like to live there for a bit actually.

Aye that looks lovely. Also never heard about;

Wonder if @pervo has been there.

Yup. I think walking through the Glasgow one on a warm May day was one of the things that convinced me to move here. Nice walk round the park, through the greenhouses, down the steps to the river, along the Kelvin… now I live 2 mins away and am pleased with my decision.

It doesn’t quite go all the way, but it’s not too far of a walk across a few roads and through the old docks.

This was the view from the top of hill in the middle of the Batumi gardens, mid-March last year:

Not into them. Just a load of plants, isn’t it. BORING.

#43

Botanical SHIT more like. Absolute waste of everyone’s time. Can’t fucking STAND botanical gardens.

Never been to one.

Particularly fond of walking round slightly run down greenhouses when no one else is there so it feels like you’re trespassing.
