Jardim Botânico do Recife, Botanical garden and museum in Recife, Brazil.

The Jardim Botânico do Recife covers 10.7 hectares within the 113.6-hectare Matas do Curado municipal conservation area, most of which belongs to the Army. It keeps a patch of Atlantic Forest along with restinga and mangroves, and has an orchid house and a meliponary of native bees.

The garden was created in 1965 through the reformulation of the Curado Zoobotanical Park, which belonged to the former Instituto de Pesquisa Agropecuária do Nordeste (IPEANE). It then passed to the responsibility of the Recife municipal government. Its research, conservation and environmental education work led to its admission to the Brazilian Network of Botanical Gardens and, through it, to Botanic Gardens Conservation International.

The garden runs environmental education activities: ecological walks, a permanent Atlantic Forest exhibit, environmental videos and visits to the nurseries of medicinal and forest plants. It also keeps an orchid house for visiting, producing and exchanging orchids, and a meliponary of native stingless bees.

The garden lies in the Curado district, within the Matas do Curado municipal conservation unit, and is reached by road; the grounds cover 10.7 ha of the larger 113.6 ha protected area. Visits combine walking trails with the orchid house and the native bee enclosure, so allow time for several stops. Trails pass through Atlantic Forest and can be uneven; wear closed shoes and carry water and sun protection.

The garden keeps an orchid house (orquidário) for visiting, producing and exchanging orchids, and a meliponário with native stingless bees. These two structures sit alongside the plant nurseries of medicinal and forest species used in environmental education walks.
