Jardín Botánico del Bosque de Chapultepec

They have sone a nice job with the parhways through different families of plants. Inside the greenhouse is filled mostly with orchids, and I imagine when they are blooming it would be amazing, but in the off-season, it is just meh. There are nice places to sit and enjoy the afternoon sun and even lay out on the grass in the fruit tree area.

I enjoyed this place because it was nice to unwind. Would not come just for the aspect of it being a botanic garden. It operates off of donations so they possibly are just lacking enough interest in funding.

Lots of interesting cacti and tropical plants. It is in good shape considering that it is free to enter.

Its mostly outside. Free to see. It was ok

Beautiful, quiet and enjoyable section of the park to walk through. There are benches to sit and relax or you can just wander. Gardens are clean, well maintained and have helpful signage. So glad we made time to wander through this lovely spot!

nice garden i walked thru on my way to the anthropology museum

This is a beautiful garden to explore lots of the indigenous flora. The orchid house has glorious stained glass and the design of the garden is quite contemporary in some places!

The park is a bit confusing if trying to get to the garden from the park with some areas closed off however the entrance from the street super easy to get to. Beautiful garden with a few statues here and there. I was really disappointed because I wanted to go into the building and they had closed the doors 1 hr before closing. There were no signs of hours so it could only go by the hours off Google. As I was going up to the buildipeoi saw a few people exit and 2 whom I'm assuming we're staff close the door and leave. I was still at a distance so I could ask. Disappointed I couldn't see the inside while we were there.

Absolutely beautiful and breathtaking all at once. Definitely a must see for all visitors. The entire walk is lovely and so much to see. Also, so much to see and do once you're done seeing the Botanico. This will be for sure something to do be sure to add to your to-do-list.

I walked through here on my way to Polanco. It's a lovely little garden space that is open and free to the public. They have a small greenhouse and a large area under the fruit trees where you can sit on a blanket (people were picnicking there), as well as benches under the thicker trees in the shade on the other side of the garden. The entrance I came in through was on the bosque castle side, and I went out the exit on the other side where the museum of modern art is. I was able to walk down that way easily to get to Polanco. I was a solo traveler and I love gardens so I had a very lovely time walking through and looking at the plants here.

On a day of exploring el Bosque de Chapultepec, we stopped by the Botanical Garden. I was expecting something more, but it's just a part of the park. There wasn't much to see (some cacti, a few sculptures, etc.), and the orchid house has seen better days. It's free, so definitely take a walk through it - but I wouldn't go out of my way to see it. Not a large botanical garden like the ones with admission costs in the US, where you can spend hours! But fine for a stroll through if you're in that park of the park anyway.

Great garden - I'm sure we didn't see it all, but the displays we did see were terrific: the Trash Garden, the succulents, the herb and edible gardens, and the display of flora piñatas. It's great that there is no admission charge!
