Cruickshank Botanic Garden

Such a beautiful place and well worth a visit. It’s full of beautiful blooms and trees. 🌲 It’s so lovely and relaxing to be amongst all the gorgeous flowers. 🌺 It’s located in old Aberdeen which is also a gorgeous area to explore. Worth making the visit.

A peaceful escape into nature's beauty. The vibrant flowers and lush greenery create a perfect spot for relaxation and photography. It's well-maintained, with charming pathways and quiet benches to sit and unwind. The variety of plant species is impressive and educational. Overall, a hidden gem in the city that refreshes the soul.

Wonderful garden, part of University of Aberdeen established 1495, filled with beautiful botanical examples of native and exotic species used in teaching. Magical place worth a visit. 👍👍👍

A lovely little collection of botanical gardens owned and run by the University of Aberdeen. It’s so peaceful that it’s easy to forget that you’re in a city, and although dogs are welcome, the lack of dog mess and off lead dogs charging around and harassing strangers makes it such a nice place to visit.

Beautiful little piece of peace right in Old Aberdeen. It's enjoyable and there is lots to see if you enjoy nature. No entry fee and not too many people. I can recommend it.

Would be worth revisiting in summer for the large herbaceous border. Would have loved to see the greenhouses but sadly not open to public. Pretty good for free entry though - pretty.

Lovely uni garden for plant lovers.

A hidden gem of secret Aberdeen. Our trip here on one of hottest days of the year was an absolute joy. This well kept and luxurious garden really stands alone especially in comparison with the cities other green spaces. With continual council cuts many of Aberdeens traditional gardens have been left to decay and many have really deteriorated over recent years. Fortunately with Cruickshank being run by the University this is just not the case. From the sense overloaded herb garden to the many water features, there are a wide range of flowers, plants, some familiar, many not, that will interest and provoke joy from anyone who visits. Thank you to all the staff who make this botanic garden such a joy to visit, you are enhancing people's life's. Ten outta ten
