Bucharest Botanical Garden, Botanical garden with 18 hectares in Cotroceni district, Romania.
The garden maintains over 10,000 plant species, with 4,000 square meters of greenhouses containing tropical and subtropical specimens.
Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza established the garden in 1860, which later moved to its current location in 1884 under botanist Dimitrie Brandza's direction.
The Botanical Museum near the entrance displays 5,000 plant species, providing educational resources for students and researchers of botanical sciences.
The garden opens daily from 8:00 to 20:00 during summer months and 9:00 to 17:00 during winter, with an entrance fee of 3 euros.
The Old Greenhouse, constructed between 1889 and 1891, follows the architectural design of the Greenhouses of Liège in Belgium.
