Uppsala Botanical Garden
Uppsala Botanical Garden, Botanical garden at Uppsala University, Sweden
The garden spans 13 hectares near Uppsala Castle and contains more than 7,000 plant species distributed across different themed sections and greenhouses.
Founded in 1655 by Olaus Rudbeck, the garden moved to its current location in 1787 following a land donation from King Gustav III of Sweden.
The garden maintains collections of specific plant genera including Anemone, Betula, Cotoneaster, and Saintpaulia, supporting research in botany and horticulture.
The Tropical Greenhouse and Orangery welcome visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with public facilities located in a yellow building between Linneanum and Norbyvägen.
The garden houses Uppsala's only rainforest environment within its Tropical Greenhouse, featuring specimens like the Santa Cruz water lily and Hoya gigas.
