Very beautiful botanical garden with free entry to roam around; there's plenty of easy access routes to get in. Some smaller paths leading around the main building and grassy areas, benches. Highly recommended if in the area to enjoy the scenery here, as it's very well maintained.
I was here with my girlfriend. It’s very close to the Zoo which is another place worth checking out. This garden isn’t very big but it’s lovely. Very serene, a large number of trees, flowers and plants. Highly recommend visiting the herbs garden, it smells amazing. Unfortunately the garden wasn’t fully open because they are renovating but what we did see was very very nice. Plus the little fountain + waterfall is such a nice spot to chill. Did I mention it’s free? 😊
A truly beautiful and calm place to spend a day with your loved ones. On weekdays it's not overly crowded, offering a serene atmosphere to enjoy the stunning views. It's definitely worth visiting if you happen to be in the area
A lovely park with a lush garden and a medieval like hotel / event venue and a cafe with beautiful views. At the cafe they pack a little picnic basket to enjoy when you get hungry while exploring different collections of plants, critters and sculptures 🧺
Great botanical garden and it’s FREE! There are many places to take pictures within the park or picnic. Be advised it’s a botanical garden and you can’t sit or walk on the grassy areas. There’s plenty of benches to sit on. There’s a nice cafe with small dishes in the main building of the garden if you work up and appetite. We spent about an hour to an hour and a half touring the garden.
Right next to the zoo. Easiest way to get three is via the 18 to the Zoo Fauna stop.

Really beautiful botanical garden, easily reachable with public transport. One of the best places in Cologne to take a walk and enjoy the blooming flowers and vegetation and escape the heat. You can go around some wonderful fountains and lakes because the garden has a good layout for casual walks.
Right behind the zoo (getting off of Bahn 18)
This park is huge!! I brought my own picnic... Sadly I wasn't allowed to sit on the grass... But there are more than enough benches to sit throughout the park in the shadows or with plenty of sun. I've spent a few hours here walking around, sitting & enjoying the view, the calmness... If you're lucky you'll find a quiet place to even meditate!
Oh yeah it took me some time to find the exit too 🫣

Very pleasant and pretty. Nice variety of flowers and they are in the progress of expanding. No ticket needed to enter and there is a small cafe on the grounds.
