Open every day apart from Christmas day, the gardens were designed in 1829 by Scottish botanist J. C. Loudon. The gardens also house a small collection of exotic birds from across the world.

When magical lanterns or dinosaurs or Ice Age creatures visit I go to the Botanical Gardens ! Loads of people about. Dates to the late 19th century. Located in Edgbaston. 23 and 24 bus routes.
