Guillermo Piñeres Botanical Garden, Tropical botanical garden in Turbaco, Colombia.

The nine-hectare garden contains a preserved natural forest, specialized collections, themed gardens, and over 300 plant species from Colombian tropical dry forests.

The garden opened in 1978 after María Jiménez de Piñeres donated the land to honor her late husband Guillermo Piñeres and protect the ecosystem.

Students and researchers utilize the garden's extensive library, herbarium collection of 14,000 specimens, and germplasm bank for botanical studies and conservation projects.

Located 30 minutes from downtown Cartagena, the garden operates from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM six days per week, offering guided tours and educational programs.

Natural springs provide year-round fresh water to the garden, supporting its diverse collection of native flora and creating conditions for rare mushroom growth.
