Botanical Gardens
Place: Chemin de l’Impératrice 1, 1292 Chambésy-Genève Since 1904, these 28 hectares located on the edge of Geneva offer an ideal setting for either a simple stroll or for learning. The Botanical Gardens consist of a collection of 16,000 plant species from all over the world. This truly living museum is divided into several sections: an arboretum, the rock garden and banks of protected plants, medicinal and useful plants, greenhouses, horticultural plants (including a “garden of scent and touch”) and an animal park devoted to conservation. An open-air cafeteria and a botanic shop contribute to a pleasant visit. Its Conservatory owns a rich collection of 220,000 volumes and a herbarium containing over 5,5 million samples; visits are open to scientists by appointment. More information: website
