Uzhhorod Botanical garden

Uzhhorod Botanical Garden is a facility with over 5000 plant species distributed across three terraces at different elevations. The plants grow both in open areas and in greenhouses to create different climate conditions.

The garden was founded in 1948, shortly after Transcarpathia became part of Ukraine. It was quickly recognized as a protected monument of landscape art.

The collections showcase plants from different climates and regions around the world, from Mediterranean landscapes to East Asia. Visitors can see how various plant species grow side by side and understand the diversity found across the globe.

The garden is easily accessible and offers free guided tours for visitors. There is also an outdoor classroom where learning activities regularly take place.

The facility houses over 130 types of conifers and has a special area with about 150 alpine plants. Some of these plants are listed in Ukraine's Red Data Book and are rarely seen elsewhere.
