Nature gardens, Botanical garden in University area, Tel Aviv, Israel.

Nature Gardens is a botanical garden in the Abu Kabir neighbourhood of Tel Aviv-Jaffa, on 16 dunams next to the Church of Saint Peter. It holds hundreds of wild plants native to Israel, with ponds and a marsh where fish and turtles live, a winter pool, and an orchard of the four species and the seven species.

The zoological garden began in 1931 as the Biological-Pedagogical Institute founded by Yehoshua Margolin on Yehuda Halevi Street; after the 1948 war it moved to Abu Kabir. In 1953 it became a university institute for natural sciences under Prof. Heinrich Mendelssohn, and in 1956 it seeded Tel Aviv University's zoology department. The botanical garden was planted in 1940 by Yaakov Galil in the sycamore grove of Gan Yaakov and moved in 1952 beside St. Peter's Church in Abu Kabir.

The gardens present plant species native to Israel and help visitors understand the country's natural diversity through direct experience. The space combines learning with exposure to Israeli flora from different regions.

The gardens are located near Ramat Aviv neighborhood and are accessible by public transport. Visitors can join guided tours or explore the grounds at their own pace.

The garden holds a winter pool and an orchard with the four species and the seven species, alongside ponds and a marsh where fish and turtles live. In 2022 Ganey Yehoshua carried out conservation work to turn the site into an open-air museum of the city's original natural landscapes.
