Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh

null Established in 1670, the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh has developed into one of the finest gardens in the world. Its 70 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, just a stone's throw from the city centre, are home to one of the richest collections of living plants on Earth. Open all year, the Garden is breathtaking throughout all seasons. Discover the world-famous Rock Garden, enjoy the serenity of the Chinese Hillside and then visit the Herbaceous Border which provides a spectacular display of colour throughout the summer. Visit the iconic Temperate Palm House and adjacent Glasshouses and then enjoy a stroll around The Queen Mother Memorial Garden. Hosting many events, exhibitions and courses every year, there is always something for everyone to enjoy.
