Yerevan Botanical Garden, Botanical garden in Avan district, Yerevan, Armenia.
Yerevan Botanical Garden is a facility with collections of trees and rare plant species from Armenia, cultivated across expansive grounds at higher elevation. Temperature-controlled greenhouses shelter tropical and subtropical plants plus succulents for visitors to explore.
A scientific institute founded this facility in the 1930s, with initial greenhouses added in the following years. The site grew into a center for plant research and species preservation.
The garden displays plants native to Armenia and their role in local life and traditions. You can see how these species grow in the region and observe their significance to the people who live here.
The garden is accessible on foot and has marked paths through various sections for walking. Allow time to see both outdoor areas and the interior greenhouses.
The site preserves an extensive collection of herbarium samples of rare plants, including many species found only in this region. This collection supports scientific research and helps protect endangered plant species.
