Traveler reviews
Anna K.
★★★★★a month agoI was very suprised by the variety of plants, must admit that I did not expect it in such latitudes. Palmhouse was OK, but not extraordinary. On the other hand rosarium, stone garden and exhibit of native plants to Estonia are definitely worth visiting.

★★★★★7 months agoThe botanical garden greenhouses here are a must-visit, especially if you start your morning at the nearby cafe. One minute you’re surrounded by towering tropical ferns and ripening fruit, and the next you’re exploring an incredible collection of desert succulents and cacti. It’s quiet, beautifully maintained, and the perfect follow-up to a cozy latte. A peaceful retreat for any day of the week! What a unique and enjoyable experience.
