The National Botanic
Garden of Wales opened in May 2000 – making us the first national
botanic garden to be created in the new millennium.
We have an amazing collection of over 8000 different plant varieties,
spread across 560 acres of beautiful countryside.
We’ve developed a stunning range of themed gardens that appeal to a
wide range of visitors, from those who just love the sight and
smells of flowers to those who want to know about medicinal plants
or the latest DNA research into plant evolution.
We are very family friendly. There’s always plenty of activities for
families to do in school and bank holidays, and we have a year round
diverse programme of events that appeal to a wide range of visitors.
We have the world’s largest single spanned glasshouse, designed by
Lord Foster, that has the best display of Mediterranean climate zone
plants in the Northern hemisphere.
There’s plenty more we could say, like we’re helping to conserve
some of the rarest plants in the world, but perhaps it’s our
competitive pricing and attractive Membership package that helps to
make us so popular.
There’s something amazing to see in every season of the year. Come
rain or shine, we have a great mix of indoor and outdoor attractions.
We exist to inspire, educate and conserve – se we’re not only a
gorgeous place to visit but a fascinating one too.
We’ve also got...
- Lovely places to eat, drink and shop
- Conference and education facilities
- Land train & buggies to help you get around & we’re fully
wheelchair accessible |
