Must visit place in Curitiba, best of all it is free! (Se você estiver visitando a cidade de Curitiba, deveria visitar este jardim botânico - é gratuito) I had the opportunity to visit Curitiba back in May, and I knew to come visit the Botanical Gardens. The structure of the building is well known throughout Brazil. The structure does not house many plants inside, but it was cool to see things growing (and thriving!) inside. Outside the structure there were many hedge shapes similar to what you'd expect in a European garden. Very beautiful! While the structure is somewhat small, the grounds of the botanical gardens are quite large, so it's worth strolling the different paths to learn more about... Plants! Especially those native to Brazil. There's a restaurant near the front of the entrance which serves "por quilo" food (food that is weighed, based on how much you eat). They had a pretty good feijoada here. In the back part of the gardens, there's a lake area. In the lake area, there is a large building, which is where vendors are selling their local goods, including handicrafts and plants. I purchased some handmade capivara plushies (Portuguese spelling of capybara) as souvenirs here. The Botanical Gardens are worth a visit if you're in Curitiba! Vem, vem (come, come)! read more

in my short 4 day visit to this incredible town of Curitiba I managed to realize that Brazil can be more than just Rio de Janeiro, his town has taught me that perhaps there is a hope for this beautiful county. on our touristy day we visited this garden that is said to be the post card of the town, after my short visit I can safely said that with reason this is the post cart. the gardens are grand with great amounts of vegetation and a very interesting maze that leads all visitors to the majestic green house, the well known green house. as we drove there we saw all the people walking and playing around the maze and coming in and out of the green house. there are plenty of beautiful flowers all along the way, the decoration and the view of the gardens is very imperial and classy. sadly when we got there a very heavy rain started to fall so we had to quickly evade, but we managed to get somewhat close enough to witness the beauty of the gardens. I will do all I can to attempt to visit this garden once again. read more

Although I'm not one to know my plants, I do enjoy a botanical garden every once in a while. Despite the heat and humidity, I wanted to come see the Jardim Botânico and was pretty pleased with the lush greenery. Although if you look hard enough you can see much to appreciate in the natural textures and colors of the plants on display. If you ever have some free time, check it out. Just go and relax a while. read more

Jardim Botânico - Inside the glass house - Botanical Gardens Near Me - Curitiba, Puerto Rico

This is a really pretty place. And it's free. There is a small space to park inside before you make the trek to see the garden. This is definitely a place to come to when you come and visit Curitiba. Make sure you bring a camera because you will be taking a ton of pictures. The garden doesn't just include the patterned flowers. There are also trails that you can take to see the ponds that they have. There is a smaller area in the back left that has a nice pond with giant gold fish. Make sure you spend enough time to walk around and if it's sunny outside, bring some water. If you want to go for a run, this is a great place to do it as the terrain is constantly changing and there is plenty of awesome nature to see. read more
