Flora und Botanischer Garten Köln

Stunning. This has to be one of the most well kept gardens we have visited the place was immaculate, had an abundance of plants and flowers and not content they are continuing to add further greenhouses through development. We had a couple of hours here but it's the type of place you could take a picnic and float around all day exploring every corner. I would definitely carve out a period of time in your itinerary to visit here. I especially loved the tropical greenhouse and ponds within the grounds.

A beautiful little park in the city of Cologne. We enjoyed our visit despite te fact the greenhouses were closed because of renovations or construction work. Parking is free but parking space is very limited!

The weather was bit rainy but the garden was beautiful with awesome flowers :) I was there with my family, we had a hot drink in the main building with nice servise ,they gave blankets because of the weather and the toilet free as well

Very beautiful park, it's nice to go here and get away from the busy city centre of Cologne. There's a restaurant where you can have some coffee or lunch.

Very beautiful botanical garden with free entry to roam around; there's plenty of easy access routes to get in. Some smaller paths leading around the main building and grassy areas, benches. Highly recommended if in the area to enjoy the scenery here, as it's very well maintained.

Right behind the zoo (getting off of Bahn 18) This park is huge!! I brought my own picnic... Sadly I wasn't allowed to sit on the grass... But there are more than enough benches to sit throughout the park in the shadows or with plenty of sun. I've spent a few hours here walking around, sitting & enjoying the view, the calmness... If you're lucky you'll find a quiet place to even meditate! Oh yeah it took me some time to find the exit too 🫣

Lovely gardens with lots of beautiful flowers, the new greenhouses weren't fully open when we came

I was here with my girlfriend. It’s very close to the Zoo which is another place worth checking out. This garden isn’t very big but it’s lovely. Very serene, a large number of trees, flowers and plants. Highly recommend visiting the herbs garden, it smells amazing. Unfortunately the garden wasn’t fully open because they are renovating but what we did see was very very nice. Plus the little fountain + waterfall is such a nice spot to chill. Did I mention it’s free? 😊

Einer der schönsten Orte Kölns, vor allem im Sommer. Viele verschiedene Pflanzen und Bäume mit den dazugehörigen Schildern, sowie ein kleines Stück mit einem kleinen Teich und Steinen über die man diesen überqueren kann. Ich liebe die Flora

What a beautiful park. Full of different interesting plants in it. It quite a nice place for people who likes nature and plants. Iniside also has a historical building with nice architecture style and serval lovley gardens. Which seem not so common in Cologane. I am glad that I have visited this place. We came here as group, it was definitely a great place to catch up with friends. We went around the places. There were serval greenhouses inside with different themes. It was really interested, some plants I have never seem before. Some just simply beautiful. When we passed the lotus lake, we all took our time, sat down and chit-chat. It was great place to have a break. There was much to see in park, we were there more than an hour. The park lies not so far from the city center. It took around 10-15 by U-Bahn. It is very close to the Cologane Zoo. Beside it's quite a well-known place for the local, so just ask someone if you really need a direction. Free entrance and they got a very nice café inside.

This place is quite incredible. With all the possibilities the Flora offers I can see why it is such a popular place for parties, food or a nice walk. Many companies rent the Flora for the day or for a few hours. A great way to impress your guests because of the beauty of the Flora. The service here is top notch from when you walk in until you leave. The food they serve at the parties is amazing. With the taste and variety you will not go hungry. The nice little cafe in the back is very comfortable and let's you sit outside and enjoy the sights. The Garden is beautiful. Takes about an hour to walk the entire garden and admire the varieties of flowers. You can also get a lunch basket and have yourself a very nice picnic. A great place to visit and a must for any garden lover.

My personality is very much drawn to the city. I've never been much of an outdoorsy type of person. But, living in a city you begin to notice how the chaos, noise, and trash begin to wear on you. Which is why I'm thankful for the little pockets of nature like the Flora. Now, I'm no botanist, but it seems that the Flora has an amazing variety of flowers and other plants with different species depending on the season. Included on the grounds are numerous greenhouses and special exhibits. The Flora is perfect for the visitor as well as the long-time resident just taking a summer stroll. The only thing that the Flora is currently missing is a quality outdoor café. At the time of this review the old main building was under renovation. Hopefully, something like a Bistro or café are in the plans.

A lovely walkaround when the weather is nice. There are many different plants in the Garden coming from all over the world. A great place to take pictures. Köln is well known with its parks and gardens. "Flora und Botanischer Garten" is one of the best at the region.

OK. Im Australian so Im biased but in Cologne I really miss the smell of nature, space and living things that arent people and dogs in general! I was having a claustrophobic day today so on a whim decided to head out and check out the botanical gardens. I was expecting to see a park full of dead plants since its such a miserable winter but I was wrong. The park is well set out, although more maps and signs would be useful as I got lost a couple of times. There is a wide variety of plants and 'environments' on display. In particular the camellia gardenhouse was beautiful and I could have spent hours just sitting in there. If you want a time out from the city I would highly recommend to come here and go for a walk or sit in one of the many spaces, read a book or people watch.
