Photo and description

Bern University Botanical Garden is famous for its unique specimens of various exotic plants, representatives of tropical and subtropical alpine, forest, aquatic cultures and no less rare specimens from the cold steppes of Central Asia. All these plants, brought from various ecological zones, are grown under close supervision both in greenhouses and outdoors, and for each of them certain conditions are created that are suitable for this particular specimen.

The history of the garden is quite long. The first botanical garden in Bern was opened in 1789, later, in 1804, another one arose. But the garden, located exactly at this address (Altenbergrain 21), was created only in 1862. Now it is located on an area equal to about two hectares, and consists of seven greenhouses, where approximately 6,000 plant species are collected. It has a rock garden where you can find a large number of Swiss alpine and alpine plants. Another part, called the Palm House, is inhabited by moisture-loving tropical crops (bananas, coffee, pineapples, sugarcane).

Be prepared for the fact that you may not be allowed inside some greenhouses if you look here from children, or demand from you maximum attention to their behavior, since you will be responsible for any damage to valuable plants. Some plants should not be touched with hands, because they may have special living conditions and only specialists are allowed to touch them, so that the conditions for their development and flowering are not violated.
