The Royal Botanic Garden is just an amazing place! And although nature is slowly preparing for autumn, we managed to admire the roses, magnificent plants in the greenhouse, flower beds, alleys. Here you can have a snack in the cafe under the vineyard and buy souvenirs)
The stunning Kew Garden Botanical Park. Plants from all over the world are collected and presented. Flowers, shrubs, and trees are fragrant in the open space. The playground is interesting. Everything has been thought out, down to the smallest detail. At the entrance, you can take a booklet with the location of pavilions, alleys, and festivals. There are swans and ducks in the big pond...Just a great place to relax and learn

A huge territory with several large greenhouses, a lot of trees and other plants. Planes are flying very close over the garden (especially next to the pagoda) to land at Heathrow. A pleasant place to return to.
And a few more facts:
The gardens were established in 1759. More than a million people visit them every year.
You can wander in these gardens all day, we didn't have time to explore much, although we were there for 4 hours.
The area of the territory is 132 hectares.
Kew Gardens has one of the world's largest collections of living plants. More than 30 thousand plants grow in gardens, and one of the largest herbariums in the world includes 7 million samples.
🟢 Adult entrance fee: £21.5
Young people (from 16 to 29 years old): £9
A beautiful well-maintained park. In early March, the saccura, magnolia, blooms! I was lucky with the weather, which is not often the case in London. But the prices bite, the entrance is 20 pounds
It is a pleasant park, but it does not strike the imagination, as I expected from the royal park. There are greenhouses, although they are not very interesting inside. There are gorgeous green alleys, ducks / partridges walk along them, you can drive them along the same green alleys. It's more like a picnic park, given that everyone walks on the lawns and doesn't sweat
