Here you can really find some unique plants and of course various roses, that Visby are known for. Lavender is also well represented. Lovely peaceful ambience surrounded by the old medieval walls
Beautiful, well worth a short stay. Many trees are labeled, so you can find out what grows on Gotland and in Visby. A beautiful stroll through greenery, and developing areas of the gardens are being cultivated, so there are new areas to look at, and a lovely old gazebo to sit in.
We were there on a cruise, and just spent a few hours wandering around the town. We started with these gardens. We were lucky in that we had a beautiful sunny day. You can walk down and along the edge of the sea and then enter the gardens from the sea side, which is also nice to see, or do the reverse. As botanic gardens go it not the biggest or most impressive, but pleasant to walk around. After we had a wander round some of the churches, but active and ruins and then a wander through the town. In all we spent 2 to 3 hours before going back to the ship.There is free wife at the tourist office. You need to take a ticket first to get your turn, and then ask for a coupon that gives you 30min connection, but you can then ask for another.Visited July 2014
Very nice garden for a short walk. It's clean and well kept, and you can read the signs and learn a bit about botany in the area.
We dwelled in the botanical garden taking a brake from sightseeing in Visby and enjoyed the peace and quite. The kids especially enjoyed the ruins and little bridges in the park
A hidden gem inside the old city walls. Walk through the Botanical Garden, watch the old trees - imagine what it will be like in the summer! Definitely coming back!
Nice oasis close to the city. Not very large, but very beautiful. With some luck there may be even an outdoor jazz concert!
The plants we nice, but there needed to be more signs with the names of the plants. The art work was intereresting, but the need to expand the herb garden with some more unusual plants.
What a beautiful and calm place. This was well worth the visit. You can exit the garden at the northern side and continue to the old city wall - very beautiful!
When you tire of visiting the countless ruined churches and city wall that surround Visby, this is the perfect place to unwind. It is right down by the waters edge and a pleasant place to spend an hour or two. I visited in September and there were still many colourful plants in bloom. There's a little gazebo at one end and the scant remains of St Olof's church.
