Photo and description

The Botanical Gardens were founded in 1891 in Roseau, the capital of Dominica. More than 50 species of flowers, trees and shrubs are collected in these gardens. Many birds, reptiles and butterflies can be seen in the thickets of plants. The gardens are still divided into 2 parts - in one you can see trees that are used for economic purposes, and in the other part there are exotic and ornamental shrubs and plants. There is a parrot reserve in the garden, where you can see two rare species: Jaco and Cisseru. The gardens have survived many hurricanes and tropical storms, the worst of which was Hurricane David in 1979. A lot of trees and shrubs were uprooted, many flowers and plants were simply destroyed. There is still a huge baobab in the garden that crushed the bus, as a reminder of this terrible hurricane. This is a great place not only for walking, but also for various games and activities. Creole in the Park is held here - a music festival as part of the holiday in honor of the country's independence. The botanical gardens are considered one of the most beautiful places in the Caribbean.
