I felt like years ago in South East Asia or New Zealand. This pavilion brought back the most beautiful memories and.. humidity😀❤️ free entrance
GOOD 👍 Great looking place. Warm on a cold day. BAD 👎 Warm on a hot day. TIP ✔️ Go early doors as it shuts earlier than most places around it.
A very nice experience. I believe that this is best enjoyed by walking slowly around whilst reading the information boards, looking at the lovely plants and taking in the odours. Access is free. Toilets are available. In my opinion, this is a small gem in the heart of Botanic Gardens which can be easily overlooked.
Visiting the Belfast Botanic Gardens at the end of May 2024 was an enchanting experience that left me utterly spellbound. The gardens are a verdant oasis in the heart of the city, brimming with vibrant colors and diverse plant species. Walking through the meticulously maintained paths, I was captivated by the lush greenery and the delicate beauty of the flowers in full bloom. The Palm House, with its exotic plants and stunning architecture, was a particular highlight, offering a serene escape into a tropical paradise. The Rose Garden, with its fragrant and colorful blooms, was equally mesmerizing. The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, enhancing the overall experience. I left the Belfast Botanic Gardens with a renewed appreciation for nature's beauty and a deep sense of tranquility. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Belfast!
Great place for a visit when looking around the Botanical Gardens. Went in October and it was very warm once you get to the viewing platform above where you have a top down view of the Tropical Ravine. In the first room it reached 28c and the second 25c so prepare to take your coat off to adjust to the climate. It takes around 15 minutes to walk around but you could easily spend much longer here.
