Traveler reviews
Frida H.
★★★★★a year agoThe Botanical Garden in Innsbruck is a lovely, peaceful spot with an impressive variety of plants (from alpine species to tropical ones). It’s well-kept, easy to explore, and offers a quiet break from the city. A pleasant visit for nature lovers (one of my favourite places in Innsbruck) the greenhouse is recommendable as well!
