Excellent piece of green space in the middle of town. There is no cost to visit and guests can invest as little or as much time as desired. Amidst all the plants was a small sample of structures showcasing glass, wood, or concrete materials. Meandering pathways lead guests through deep jungle-like areas and also high atop overlooking the surrounding city. This park is a great place to relax and features a great variety of visuals. Highly recommended.

Stumbled upon this garden by chance during the three hours I had to kill in Zürich. It's such a wonderful Oasis in the middle of this European city. It has a greenhouse, a small bamboo forest, lots of small pathways meandering between the trees, and a plateau on the top with a garden elevated above the rest of the area. It was such a lovely place of peace taking a break from the city life 😌

Place for peace and relax. When good weather, people come here for lunch. Eventhough the botanic is moved, you can still learn a bit about plants here, too. Public toilet is clean (sadly with many marks of cigarettes..).

Beautiful botanical garden in the center of the city. It is certainly better in summer but was a pleasure to visit in winter as well. It is not very big but the entrance is free of charge so it is worth a tour.

Rain or shine it's always a nice place to escape and smell the fresh flowers. Even admire the palm trees. Yes, you might find your high school kid smoking but isn't that where all of us used to hide?

No entrance fee required. Open Mon ~Sat. For Public. Nice place to go for family picnic and relax.

Great small gardens to visit, free to enter, many twists and turns, you can spend a while exploring or basking in the sun on the benches or grass, listening to the birds and bees around you.

Cute little garden with an interesting art piece which is a spiral staircase. Good place to chill in the midst of the city or to do some reading with no one disturbing you. There is also a free museum but not much inside.

Awesome place for a quick lunch (Picknick). Great view over Zurich!

Lovely park near Paradeplatz in Zurich, many different trees. It is next to Shanzengraben canal which connects to Sihl near Zurich HB.

We visited it in January so not much to see, very small hilly park. It's probably best viewed in summer.

Free entry, open daily but time varies by time of year. Free public toilets. The gardens don't look well maintained. Perhaps they are attempting a natural look but numerous weeds, overgrown and dead plants. However, many quiet places to read and/or reflect. Signage does not include English.

In the heart of the busy city

It's a nice garden if you want to relax or rest after a walk. Place is quite and yet close to the center all attractions. My wife reported dirty ladies washroom, but that might be only on that day.

Small botanical garden on a slight gradient/hill near the city centre. Visited it during autumn and loved the trees shedding golden leaves. Worth visiting and enjoying the scenery.

(Translated by Google) Nice place recommend it to everyone! (Original) Schöner Ort kann es jedem empfehlen!

Cute but small. I prefer the new botanical garden.

A nice place to have a small and relaxing break surrounded by nature.

A calming oasis of tranquility in the centre of Zürich. Just a short walk away from the main shopping streets. Equally, not far from Bűrkliplatz where the boats leave for Lake Zürich and Limmat River trips. A perfect place to eat a packed lunch, or just while away the time.

Is small and nice garden in the middle of the city. Nice to se the plants and spieces Many people go during lunch time and eat there what they bought in a take away. There was plenty of people, I sometimes wonder, if this is called Home Office.

Nice little park/garden at the city centre. It's quite pretty but rather tiny. Free public toilets. Sometimes crowded.

Nice place to walk or sit on a bench under the trees. Some benches offer a beautiful view of the river and the city behind it. This garden is free and open to the public until 7 pm or so.

Quite small, but still nice for a short stroll around.

Nice and chill place to hangout and have a quiet talk and rest!🤗

Beautiful place to enjoy your lunch. It’s a private escape from the business of the area, and there’s always some flower or tree in bloom. There are even people exercising there, or reading a book.

Lovely place, used to live in that city for 4 years and never new of this place 😆

Nice central location, but a little unkempt, with many weeds here and there. Arboretum Zürich is much nicer.

Beautiful place to downwind. Unfortunately the opening times are a bit short and the park closes pretty early even in summer.

Nice place to walk around if you have time. The actually gardens at the top of the hill were a bit overgrown and looked like they weren’t being taken care of. The whole park itself was nice though.

Nice project. Good job. Recommend for visiting.

Greenery is pretty and not many people come here. You can relax in the shade and sit for a while. It's completely free and there's also restroom you can use which is even better.

(Translated by Google) Nice place, as it has no entry fee, you can also go there to study or just to pass the time (Original) Schöner Ort, da es such keine Eintrittsgebühr hat, kann man auch dahin, zum lernen oder auch nur um die Zeit zu vertreiben

Nice open garden. With a nice terrace and some very flagrant plants.

Nice place to cool down during lunch break

Place you must see. Autumn is beautiful here..

Really nice place to take a walk!

A great escape from the busy city, and yet still very close to get to. Very calm and nice atmosphere.

Small park, nice for a bit of strolling around if you are in the area. Has steps and steep paths, so I wouldn't recommend for people who need walking aid. There are some fun art installations, but unfortunately the QR code with more information was so tiny my phone couldn't recognize it.

Beautiful place to chill

Right in the hear of Zurich, very small but very nice botanical garden. You can find there everything from bamboo to clementines growing on the tree. It has a little pond with water-lizards, a green house with some rare plants and a big section with various edible herbs and vegetables. Good place for a little Sunday walk.

It might not be a true botanical garden, but its beautiful. A nice green space in the city center. I place to away, even for a few moments, and enjoy some natural beauty and greenery in the midst of all the concrete and buildings. There are some very nice/cool pathes/trails. There is a beautiful glass structure with plants inside such as cactus and some other desert/tropical plants. It's only open during the spring and summer. A must see ! Please see photos also.
