National Botanical Garden of Georgia
National Botanical Garden of Georgia, Botanical garden in Sololaki district, Tbilisi, Georgia.
The National Botanical Garden of Georgia sits in the Tsavkisistskali River gorge and holds over 3500 plant species from different parts of the world. The grounds spread across roughly 40 hectares with pathways through various zones where visitors discover tropical, temperate, and alpine plants.
The site originated from three separate royal gardens laid out in the 17th century and later merged together. In 1845 it was reshaped into a state botanical garden under Count Vorontsov's administration.
The garden displays Georgian native plants alongside specimens from distant regions and serves as a space for research and protecting rare species. Visitors can see how traditional Georgian flora connects with modern conservation methods.
The main entrance sits on Botanical Street near Narikala Fortress, where visitors can start exploring. The grounds are easy to walk through, with a cafe and museum on site plus seating areas throughout for taking breaks.
The garden operates a specialized seed exchange program and national seed bank to preserve genetic resources. This system protects one of the world's extensive plant gene collections and supports international conservation efforts.
