Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Easily one of the highest variety of plants, flowers, bonsais, trees, flowers and flora you could find in a national botanical garden. Classes available (with reservations) for school classes, massive sprawling park to walk around, a small children playground for outdoor entertainment, and a small lake to circumvent. An easy 30 min drive straight south from Riga, and parking available upon entry. Little further from the city but easy to access with the train and plus they do discount if you show your train ticket. Love to explore botanical gardens where I travel to enjoy the nature and explore more and more plants. Territory is big and marked well in the map however we didn’t get information at some part of the places, some part is just forestry. Their conservatory is not open during Mondays and Tuesdays hence don’t miss it :) We had a lovely day with my sister exploring different areas of the National Botanical Garden. We really enjoyed conservatory with all the expositions, and great greenhouse collection. I paid €8 to see the Botanical and also the conservatory. And there is plenty pathways to go for walks and see the all together. They also opened the new Botania - plant kingdom. There are toilets in main buildings and there are lots of places to explore with kids. Amazing place! Biggest botanical in Baltics!☝🏻 Huge selection of plants.😍 Tickets could be cheaper. I wish this to expand and have more tropicals! 🌱💯❤️ huge area, nice collection of plants, good way to spend your day. frog pond is awesome! some signs and maps are chaotic and confusing, I would add more benches and I would say the ticket is a bit overpriced, bit still recommended for a visit. An amazing experience! The greenhouse is so peaceful and totally worth the visit. The premise includes specifically designed places for barbecue hang out. Must visit place for anyone who enjoys a walk in a park. Well worth a visit. Salaspils is easy accessible by train and only 20 minutes away from Riga. A great collection of cacti. the largest collection of in the Baltics and one of the largest arboretums in North-Eastern Europe. Nice place, with a lot of intimate places for private activities. Various specimen of vegetation, pinias and so on Very nice place where to spend time with family and in general good place to spend time, especially when outside is not very warm weather, cause there's almost all exposition inside buildings. It's well carried and there are really interesting and some of them impresses with it's height 😊 Glasshouses hold an interesting and impressive collection. Outside collections of roses, day lilies, lilies and peonies. Herbaceous borders developing nicely. If you are in Riga and have a botanical interest it’s worth the short trip from the centre. was here with my class, it started raining so we didn't get to see much outdoor stuff, instead we went to see the indoor stuff in the "botanica" building, there's quite alot of stuff to see and learn about, the whole place also supports English and russian language. One of the best botanic I've seen. The were beautiful, but what triggered me the most was the controllers in the in the orangery. My sister was there with a kid who was sleeping and she told the controllers politely to talk a little bit quitter, but the woman didn’t care. She started specifically talking louder and then when to her man colleague. Then the man came to us to check the tickets and once again she asked POLITELY to talk a little bit quitter and he started shouting at us. Worst experience EVER!!! And the food at the cafe wasn’t even edible!!! —> harsh meat (honestly the worst sashlik in my life), cold food, prices are not fair for the quality of food and the garlic bread was old, very soggy and could feel that these were not made that day.
