    We were told to visit this park, hoping to see some nice flowers. But end of august it seems that the flowers are not as beautiful as they probably would be during spring. But nevertheless its a nice park to walk through and enjoy the quietness of a park in a city. Enough place to sit in the shadow during hot days in summer. Some gardeners would be nice to clean up the sides and some bins for people to throw their dirt. Now we have seen beer cans between the flowers. For us it's a one time visit as it was not that special to walk 2km from our hotel Grand Hotel la Cloche.

    Beautiful botanical garden close to the city center of Dijon. There are lots of different plants and trees, some beautiful benches in the shade, and a playground for children. When we were there, there was a little place to buy drinks and crêpes, and there was a free exposition.

    This botanical garden is free to the public. As a result, it's well visited my a nice mix of locals and visitors. It is full of both pedestrian and extraordinary plants that are well signed. There are also well manicured lawns, pergolas and nicely situated benches for resting on a sunny afternoon. My husband and I spend a half hour weaving through the rows of neatly planted specimens. It's a bit out of the way, but I'd definitely recommend visiting this green lung in Dijon.

    A beautiful small botanical garden for free. Totally worth the walk from the city center.

    Ein kleiner schöner Garten ideal, um eine kurze Pause zumachen unm dem Stadttrubel zu entfliehen .. was uns gut gefallen hat: viele Gemüsebeete. in der heutigen zeit auch interessant für kinder da wenige wissen wie eine tomate wächst.. Habe auch das erste mal eine Artischocke gesehen .. also Fazit Erholung und Bildung gleichzeitig

    It was a scorcher of a day but aside from the dog poo,I enjoyed walking around this garden, which was growing all sorts of fruits and vegetables. For me, the highlights were chillis and various grapes. Though not the most attractive garden, it was a good place to find a shady spot and chill.

    Great park to have quiet time. Probably would not recommend the kiosk due to wild life after hours exploring the area.

    Lovely walking paths throughout along the canal. Perfect in warm weather for picnics.

    This botanical garden was really beautiful. Visiting it during blossoming season was a blast!

    Wunderschönes Kleinod fußläufig der Altstadt von Dijon. Wenn man dem Parcours de la Chouette folgt kommt man hierhin. Waren im Frühling da und es hat so wunderbar alles geblüht. Auch die Kinder waren begeistert. Das Naturkundemuseum welches sich ebenfalls im botanischen Garten befindet lohnt sich auch. Und das schöne: alles kostenfrei :)

    A great place to relax during very very very hot days. The weird statues are a bonus!

    An oasis, a professionally managed herbal and botanical public space. This alone justies the trip to Dijon.

    Just next to the train station. Small and easy to go around garden, would be nice to visit in summer when all the plants are more lively.

    Summer is coming! Time for picnic! Some distance away from a nice pizza place and near train station. Just one thing that a bit disappointing, the only toilet is not working on that time .

    A small oasis to get away from the bustling city. A lovely experience and a great place to take the children to learn. Keep up the great work.

    It is a nice place to visite, had a good diverse range of plants and flowers. I was very amazed by the bees. It worth the time and the trip.

    Great place to relax In the tranquility of nature. Kids had a fun time at the playground and the surrounding wooded areas. The natural history museum was well done and densely packed for it's small size.

    Beautiful. It's full of a variety of well tended plants, situated between two museums. There's a nice playground.

    Lovely fruit, flower, and vegetable gardens with a focus on education about where our food comes from. That’s important especially in an increasingly urban life, and the main garden area is very idyllic. I would love spending an afternoon reading on a bench there. However, the back half of the garden is overgrown and not well kept. It seems more like a random field that happens to have some paths, hence one fewer star. Still a nice stop on a sunny day though.

    Nice Garden in the center of Dijon. Clean, save, kid and pet friendly with a playground.

    Lovely place! Sadly, the green houses were not open, but the garden itself was amazing.
