We were staying at the StayAt, and it is a short walk to these wonderful gardens. With the sun shining, this passed a lovely half hour or so, before we retired to dinner!
Lots of places for young kids to explore and run around in. Fun with the big tree used as a playground.The big gardens have plenty of room for play or picnic.Green houses very exciting and also nice a on a cold winters day.
This is a great place to wind down, rest, enjoy a picknick in the open with friends and/or discover some fascinating plants and unusual trees. Have a nice cup of coffee with a (small) cake, don´t expect big portions nor having a real meal. In summer remember to check out the mulberry tree right by the coffe shop. Every year in spring and autumn there is a day when ordinary plant growers sell their surplus of plants such as tomatos, a fun and inspiring time to share plant ideas, talk to other growers and perhaps buy some new seedling for you garden or balcony.
The garden is amazing, especially in spring when everything is in bloom and the place is full of colors. It is ideal for a relaxing stroll on a sunny day.
The gardens are well worth a a visit and are free. The cafe serves excellent lunches in an ideal setting.
One of the most colorful and beautiful places in Lund, especially when everything is bloomed out from April- May until the mid-fall. Probably my favorite walking place !
I love the Botanic Gardens...I brought a picnic to meet my husband for lunch and we sat on the grass, surrounded by bird song, beautiful herbaceous borders and peace in the city. Love it :-)
The Botanical Garden in Lund is very popular among particularly students during spring and up to the end of the spring semester when they leave town to do other things than study during the break. And naturally this is the best time of the year to visit, with all flowers and freeness of the green vegetation.But my favourite time to visit is actually on a dark gloomy autumn or winter day. Then I go to the green houses where you by taking a couple of steps can visit a rain forest or desert environment and forget about the horrible weather outside. In some of the rooms there are some extremely cute "micro" hens. Sometimes they have chickens that are just a couple of centimeters high.Opposite the green house is a small café that is not very frequented but offers nice sandwiches and coffee at a reasonable price.
Gardens & greenhouse are well-signed (each small garden has a description in Swedish and English) and very pretty. Flowers also draw birds and wildlife and make for a great hour or two. Easy walk from other sites in town.
We come here often in summer to walk, picknick, play and enjoy the greenhouse. Stroll around and just sit under a tree.
