Sukorambi Botanical Garden, Botanical garden in Jember, Indonesia.
Sukorambi Botanical Garden is a garden in Jember set on a sloping hillside, home to over 300 herb species, 200 types of flowers, and fruit trees. The site sits at approximately 100 meters above sea level and features both upper and lower sections connected by staircases and walking paths.
This garden was founded in 2007 by Abdul Kahar Muzakir as a private family retreat. Public access came later following suggestions from visitors and acquaintances who appreciated the space.
Plant labels are displayed in both Indonesian and Latin, helping visitors understand botanical names and how different species are classified. This bilingual approach makes learning about the plants accessible to everyone who walks through the garden.
The garden can be explored through staircases and walking paths that navigate the hillside terrain. On-site facilities include pools, a restaurant, and a reading center where visitors can rest and relax.
Visitor numbers shift significantly with the seasons, rising sharply during holiday periods and school breaks. These fluctuations show how the garden becomes a popular destination for families and groups seeking outdoor time during vacation seasons.
