One of the oldest botanical gardens in the world, it's a great spot to relax with a book , take a green break from the busy city centre or discover unique plants from all over the world. Read more

One of my favourite spots in Amsterdam. Regardless of the season, always worth of a visit, in the greenhouses , but also outside garden . Enjoy the nature and atmosphere. And cup of coffee in the cafe .

Tiffany

Delightfully compact oasis. We had snacks and drinks in the café and then wandered the gardens and greenhouses .

'While it’s more literally ‘green’, one of my favourite spots in the city is the Hortus Botanicus, a great place to go if you need to escape the city and find nature.' - Mette te Velde, co-founder of Read more

Samantha Bryden

A really beautiful botanical garden . Even in the winter go to check out the greenhouses and butterfly room

Bea H

Lovely place to visit, €9 entrance. Pay €33 for a year and go as much as you like.

Ru Galiev

Must see especially if you want to recharge yourself after tiresome walking in the city

Stephen Crocker

The hot house is very humid and misted up my camera ! The butterflies are quite nice to watch and there is a varied collection of plants.

Adel Bernadett Papp

If you'd like to escape the city , this is the place to go to. Quiet , calm and beautiful garden . Perfect for sundays.

Melanie Rap

Not very big, 7euros entrance. might be better in the spring but worth a visit. They have a butterfly house , a palm tree green house and a tropical plant section. Very relaxing

Mr. MaD

Unbelievable beautiful place! Don’t miss out on the butterfly house !

Tonia Imperfect

Beautiful tropical area , the cactus room is also nice and there is a cute restaurant to chill afterwards .

Duncan Howsley

Perfect for relaxing in the heat of the tropical house. Look out for the cat with no tail too!

Fred

Don’t miss the café ! Nice in winter and summer

A really great spot, esp with young kids. The jungle house and butterfly house are amazing.

Amazing botanical garden in Amsterdam

If you have the museum card, it costs just 1 euro!

Owen Williams

Beautiful gardens within the city , though maybe a little pricy

Jorge Bronze

Beautiful gardens but not any different to others you may have seen before.

Chris Vuocolo

Nice place to relax in the quiet . Wasn't much in bloom when we came in mid-May though.

Rob Bullough

An oasis of calm . Great place to have a think

Anna Nyberg

Love the greenhouses with different climates!

Bradley T.

Oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands. 1590!

Serhii Lutsko

I thought the botanical garden would be something much more better but it was small and nothing special for me

Zoe van Havre

The greenhouses are incredible.

Jamie N

Peaceful , relaxing diversion.

Stephanie Francis

Very small and quite disappointing. Dublin is fantastic by comparison and it's free!

Michiel van Iersel

Lemon-meringue pie by Holtkamp is the best

MLKDLSZ

Not much too see for me, green place

gisele feth

Smell the flowers

Rob Bullough

Need some quiet ? Head to the Hortus.

Maxim Rusakov

Обязательно пройдите по мосту в оранжерее! А еще обязательно зайдите в теплицу к бабочкам. И самое главное - там есть два реликтовых дерева гинкго.

Anna

Приятное место, особенно, если погода подвела. Вход 7€. Особо поражают свои же "домашние" растения в масштабе 1:50, бабочки и школьные выездные уроки. В магазине- красивые садовые "штучки". Все в сад !

Elena Kiseleva

Один из самых старых ботанических садов мира, что чувствуется: выглядит немного потрепанным. Погулять по оранжереям приятно, если есть свободный час. Если времени в А мало, специально идти не стоит.

Julia

Klein, aber fein. Sehr alter historischer Garten .

Alex

Оранжереи классные, магазин тоже хороший. По сити кард пустили бесплатно.

Emre Karayel

Çalışanı bulunan en güzel ortam... sakin bir bahçe ....bitki yoğunluğu..

Jonne Kingma

Naast mooie planten en bloemen is de industriële architectuur ook weg fijn.

Sergey Kuznetsov

Осенью тут решительно нечего делать. Все желтое и везде листья. Ничего не цветет.

Sandie Didie

Incontournable de beauté
