Botanical Garden of Rome

This was such a cool find! We had some time to kill before leaving Rome so we walked over to the botanical garden as it was close to our accommodation. I wish we would have given ourselves more time because there was so much to see here. After spending a few days running around at the very heavily populated tourists with crowds and crowds of people, it was so nice to go somewhere quiet and serene. We went in the late morning around 10 am which was perfect because it wasn't very busy at all but was already a beautiful day. If you go up to the top of the park, you can see a gorgeous view of the city.

We had a wonderful time at the botanical garden. The 5 dollar entry fee was well worth it. I would have even paid 10. We got to see all kinds of plant species. We spent hours and hours just walking around reading about plants and taking in all of the nature. Much nicer than being in the city. I think the park could do better at advertising everything it has to offer. There is a butterfly garden and a tropical greenhouse which were really spectacular. There is some construction and some things that were closed but we still had a great time.

The greenhouses had some interesting succulents and cacti, but overall I was slightly disappointed. A lot of the areas seemed to be closed for the season/under renovation. Honestly I think I would skip this and spend more time at park Cedro del Libano. It was incredible (and free)!

It was quite a winding route to get here, but it was worth the walk. The grounds include a Japanese garden, among other attractions. Be mindful of mosquitoes and the sun/heat, if you're a magnet or burn easily. Definitely worth the price of admission.

Cheap entry, but amazing sights. Gorgeous view of Rome. Bamboo forest, Japanese gardens and gorgeous palm trees. A hidden gem with exploring!

A peaceful oasis in the heart of Trastevere. The Orto Botanico di Roma is a beautiful escape from the busy streets, with a wide variety of plants, including bamboo groves, orchids, palms, and a charming Japanese garden. It’s a lovely place for a calm stroll, especially in spring when everything is in bloom. Some areas feel a bit overgrown and could use more upkeep, and mosquitoes can be an issue in warmer months, so bring repellent. Overall, a relaxing and affordable way to enjoy nature in the city.

A wonderful park to relax from the active tourist center with crowds of tourists. The park is in a very natural style, with a calm atmosphere.

May 2nd week -rose season is almost gone. It’s nice to see Big trees and some flowers . But green house is not organized. Just simple few Cactus were there. Japanese garden was nice. But i can see rose are not treamed well. It needs more care. With entrance fee 5euro it should be more organized. But it is good to walk around and enjoy nature .
