We spent a wonderful afternoon at the monster exhibit! 14 inflatable monsters are installed around the gardens among the beautiful flora from all around the world. Amusing information and commentary accompany the exhibits.
Our 8 year old thoroughly enjoyed discovering the creatures and reading the information.
This is a wonderful garden, not far from the center of Jerusalem, with plants from around the world.
A lovely place for a walk and can be combined with a meal at caffit in the grounds or a visit to the well stocked nursery next door.

Amazing place, large variety of flowers and trees. Don't miss the tropical greenhouse!
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY : We were so excited to see this "Botanical garden" as photos uploaded looked amazing (very deceptive to do this) , but upon our visit we saw a very neglected, littered and under nurtured dry place, full of weeds and trees, and we could rarely find any flowers. There seems to be no maintenance to this place whatsoever, the small stone monuments are neglected, which I find very djsresptful. The garden is full of labels but no flowers there. Over priced too - 40 NI per person. The only good things perhaps were the water fountains, which had water and were cold, and the shade, which honestly can be found everywhere in Jerusalem. Really disappointed.
The Jerusalem Botanical Gardens is a must-visit destination for nature enthusiasts and those seeking respite from the bustling city. Spanning 30 acres, it houses over 6,000 plant species from around the world, organized by geographical regions. Highlights include the biblical garden, showcasing plants mentioned in the Bible, and the tropical conservatory with its exotic flora, waterfall, and butterfly exhibit. The garden offers an educational and spiritual experience that shouldn't be missed.
Amazing range of trees flowers and other plants, beautiful gardens. The garden hosts a large selection of trees and plants from different areas of the world.
While the place is nice I guess you should not come during the summer when not many flowers are to be seen and the garden is too hot to really enjoy. All different kind of trees and flowers. Probably the only place in jerusalem to be found with nature from all around the world. It is very pleasant and refreshing to walk there. I suggest coming in fair weather, it's a bit too hot in summer. Really special place in the middle of the city. Keep in mind that winter/spring are more suitable time to visit, mainly because of the blossom and of course the temperatures.
Do not miss on the tropical-desert closed display, it's amazing.Night and day photo click.

Lots of plants to see and the whole place is a short tour around. We were there for the winter lights festival and it looked spectacular!! A worthy visit if you're around, and I'm sure that during the day and not in a festival it looks great
A must visit for all tree lovers. A hidden paradise in the middle urban Jerusalem.
The tropical greenhouse is amazing.
