"very green, which contributes to the filtration of breathable air"

It's a beautiful garden, with a vast diversity of plants/trees. It's quiet and nice to ambient to read/study or just relax. I don't give it five stars because there are a lot of mosquito like insects after 4-5pm, which sting and irritate the skin, making it very ichy. It also doesn't have shade in many of the benches provided by the park.

Nice spot to visit in Maputo. The place is very convenient for study, reading a book, or quiet chill with friends. The WiFi is gratis but only working in certain areas on the day we visit. The entrance is well designed with a statue of the 1st President of Mozambique. Nice spot for pics as well.

Very beautiful park. On the weekends you can see couples celebrating their marriage, there is a place that you can see bats. You can sit and relax. There is also a tennis court.

Since 1885 this botanical garden survived in the old center of Maputo. Massive tall tropical trees provide shade. There is a small pond and the trails through divers vegetation are well maintained. Birds and bats have chosen the garden to be their home. It is a very tranquil place, excellent for a walk in the morning. Hardly suitable for running as the garden is rather small. Small but lovely gardens - really, more of a park than a botanical garden. Well-kept, with a gateman to maintain order. Quiet, with benches and lawns. Lovely trees, flowers, and a very visible bat colony. Recommended.

Worth it for the fruit bats! Nice florals, trogans!

What a beautiful place, lovely trees and interesting bats. We went on a Saturday and lots of people were getting married. Great to see. I had to pick up a few bottles or rubbish, keep the park clean, please, there is enough rubbish around without ruining this spot.

Beautiful gardens with massive trees. It is also well worth looking for the fruit bats. The garden seems very popular for wedding photos over weekends.
