A must if you visit Leuven ! It's a very beautiful Botanical garden with several tropical greenhouses with turtles, cocoa tree, palm trees and fountains. Outside you will find many plant species, many native birds and insects as well, all enjoying the park! It is marvelous !!

It is a large garden with a wide range of plants and it is divided into many areas both indoors and outdoors. In spring, most of plants here are blooming and full of colors. We can explore plants in different living conditions. I can find plants from my country, a tropical country, though it is far away from home now. It is totally free and there are many chairs to sit and enjoy the atmosphere here.

One of my favorite places in Leuven for some quite time. It's beautiful in each season, but I particularly like the spring period: thanks to good care and right positioning of the plants, they are always ahead of other gardens and definitely ahead of mine - giving inspirational boost of energy to start the works after the wintertime.

Well maintained garden. We had our lunch organised here. Overall rating is very well. Clean, well maintained and great for photos.

Very lovely botanic garden in Leuven. It maybe not exactly in the busy area of Leuven but it's still accessible with bus from the main train station or even walk (as Leuven is not exactly big like Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, etc). It's nice to visit here in different seasons as different flowers blooms, so scenery changes. It's definitely ideal for many purposes. Having some lovely strolls, to have lunch while eating at the bench, just to have take nice pictures, etc. I definitely recommend visiting this place ag least once.

Very beautiful and well kept garden, there is also WC for free. I’d say a perfect place to unwind and chill.

Small, well maintained botanical garden with few separate glass houses. Fairly good collection of plants but for sure not big enough to be mentioned in top 100 botanical gardens. Serves as a thorough fare for general public during the day time. Absolutely a good place to visit for some peace.

Great place to relax and of course discover some rare plants. Their systematic gardens are also really a joy for people into plants/gardening/cooking

Beautiful park! However, many trees, flowers and plants were withered or gone which kind of made the experience a bit less special and enjoyable, but still a wonderful park to sit and walk around!

Great place to relax. It’s for free and just leisurely and slowly take a walk with beautiful plants.

My favourite place in Leuven, big and green. You can come any season and find bloom flowers and green fields. Entrance is free, very clean, good place to come with family or friends

What a hidden treasure. A haven of peace and plants. Several gardens and plenty of seating to rest, read or contemplate the beauty of nature. And it's free!

A lush, green oasis in the city of Leuven. Not too far from the center of the city. It's wonderful for a walk, although it can be crowded during the weekend especially if the weather is nice.

Beautiful botanical garden. Good for walks, office work with laptop, studying, strolling with kids. Peaceful and well maintained. Different varieties of plants and herbs. Must visit this hidden gem in Leuven. Its free of cost. Open everyday till 8 pm. Photography allowed. They also have greenhouses and slider turtles too.

Very nice garden. Built with love. We parked 2h for free at parking bodart veilingweg and walked 10 Minutes. Very recommended for plant lovers, friends and gardeners

An incredibly beautiful corner, I had never seen such plants and flowers! And at the same time, visiting the botanical garden is free!

A great place. Peaceful.

Very nice well maintained garden, open on Sunday as well. One of my favourite places in Leuven.

Very nice place, good place to relax, read book or sit down and drink coffee

Met my husband there so it has a special place in my heart. There’s always new plants and it gets super beautiful during summer/spring.

The Botanical Garden from LOUVAIN is a place you have to see , and visit. In the middle of the city , a Lung of Nature. Very well kept and clean.

cool turtles and moving plants, 10/10

A must see place in Leuven to everyone who loves plants, flowers and nature walks. I have been to many botanic garden, but this was extraordinary! ❤

Beautiful gardens and a must see! A great place to spend an hour and relax.

Nice quiet places to walk into, if you are lucky the place with the waterlelies are open. Don't forget the to check the tropical place a look and check out the turtles.

(Translated by Google) This green oasis is worth a visit when you come to Leuven. You can stroll along the footpaths, relax on a couch, ... (some students even study there for their exams). I always really enjoy the different biotopes and the typical smells of each biotope. This botanical garden has a beautiful collection of blue rains that smell wonderful when they are in bloom. But in fact the garden is worth a visit all year round. (Original) Deze groene oase is de moeite van het bezoeken waard als je in Leuven komt.

Deze botanische tuin heeft een mooie collectie blauwe regens die heerlijk geuren als ze in bloei staan. Maar in feite is de tuin het hele jaar door de moeite van een bezoek waard.

Nice quite place for a Sunday walk

Nice garden, even great during wintertime. The greenhouses are really worth it. Will visit again in spring, summer and autumn.

Beautiful garden with a big amount of different plants and flowers. You can also visit it in the winter bcs there are two orangeries (not only the outside park, which one is also amazing). Also nice location for a photoshoot!😁📸

A great place to relax and go for a stroll. Beautifully maintained. Don't miss our the tropical serre indoors. In the back there is a pond with turtles.

It is a good place, they have a great variety of plants and flowers and lots of spaces to sit down and relax

A lovely green space in the heart of the city

A really beautiful garden right outside the city centre. Just a short walk from the square. It has a lot of colourful plants and flowers, and the greenhouse with 'jungle' theme and turtle nest is lovely. Also, don't miss the indoor pond with purple waterlilies. Worth it.

(Translated by Google) I was there last Sunday, there were walkers but certainly not too many. A big plus: you can go to the toilet! That is important to me. Of course not much is in bloom now, but the buildings and the layout of the garden, the small water features, the many benches, make it a pleasant experience! (Original) Ik was er vorige zondag, er waren wandelaars maar zeker niet teveel. Een groot pluspunt : je kan er naar toilet gaan ! Voor mij is dat toch belangrijk.

(Translated by Google) Large garden in the center of Leuven, with a huge variety of different species ideally showcased both outdoors and in the greenhouse.

Ce poumon vert vaut le détour pour y flâner ou même lire un livre sur un des bancs. Nb : il dispose de toilettes publiques si besoin.

I really loved it. It was really nice and very calming. Even if you just want to relax a bit I would definitely recommend it. There are many benches where you can sit and enjoy the view.

Nice place, can be a bit crowded when the weather's nice. Have free toilets, which is a plus. Nice variety of flowers and plants

Love everything about this place especially the green houses

Amazing landscaping with many varieties of plants and trees. Giant maple trees and a huge greenhouse with plants that wouldn't survive the winter. If you like plants, you will love this place. Bravo to the gardeners that care for this place.

Magical. A great experience (for free) in a botanic gardens which is very rich in species, bees, and well-taken care of. A must-see when in Leuven. A nice open-air experience in every season of the year. Very charming even in winter. Open also on Sundays.

Amazing in- and outdoor botanical garden with a wide variety of plants dating back more than 200 years...every season something different to marvel at, for people seeking some quiet from the city, or a romantic spot to take your first date to

After living in Leuven for the past two years, I finally managed to make it to the local botanical garden. And now I feel quite bitter for not paying a visit earlier! Though the grounds themselves are not larger, the garden is beatifully arranged and maintained.

Beautiful garden with wide variety of plant species. Must visit during the spring summer season to see all the beautiful flowers bloom. There are cute water bodies inside making the visitor experience magical!!

Very good place to visit. Especially in spring. Flowers are blooming, and the garden is very beautiful. You can also bring laptops and work here as there are plenty of tables and chairs spread around.

Entrance is free. There is a toilet, also free. No large, but rather intensively used garden of Leuven University. It was established several centuries ago for growing plants fir medical purpose for students practice. It consists of several open areas with decorative and fruit/berries plants and trees and several greenhouses with tropical plants and flowers. You can buy a book about the garden and plant collection. If you like plants snd gardens, you can spend a pair of hours walking there.

Botanical garden located in the center of Louvain, a small paradise where you can admire the beauty of trees, plants and flowers. free entry, I recommend it.

Lovely little garden, perfect for a short walk. Has a clean WC as well. Visited in August and the flowers were blooming in sweet purples and blues.

A very nice and well maintained Botanical Garden. A public facility that is used for educational purposes to demonstrate for students how things can be done. They even had a kiwi orchard which looked almost ready to pick! The friendly person who worked there was very clear that no one is to pick anything from the different fruit treas and we felt we needed to mention that we didn't do any picking ourselves. We thought it funny how that chat went 😁 The place needs a small Cafe, it would have been perfect to sit in such surroundings and relax a bit and drink something, especially today because it was unseasonably hot at 30 or so degrees celsius!

Love it so much. I assume visiting during spring or autumn will be more beautiful. The botanical garden is very well managed and open access for everyone.

Holy moly! Completely stumbled upon this garden whilst walking around Leuven without any plan. It is BEAUTIFUL! Huge variety of flora and fauna plus sculptures dotted around. The grounds are easy to navigate as well as indoor areas such as greenhouses. There is even a compost space! It was so peaceful and lovely, I am so happy I accidentally happened upon it!

This place is free to enter and is refreshing amidst the city's hustle with its greenery and numerous trees. At the right time you can also view beautiful flowers blooming. Many people come for leisurely walks in the afternoon.
