La Concepción Historical Botanical Garden
Jardín Botánico-Histórico La Concepción
A botanical garden in a former 19th-century aristocratic estate, with tropical and subtropical plants, a wisteria walkway, palm groves and Roman sculptures scattered throughout.
The garden was originally the 19th-century estate of the Loring-Heredia family. Its collection includes more than 2,000 tropical and subtropical species, with bamboo groves, palms, ferns and century-old banyan trees. The wisteria walkway in spring is especially popular, and the estate's Roman antiquities can also be seen. The garden has a lookout point with views over the city. Entry costs about 5 euros. It is about 7 km from the city centre, reached by bus line 2 or taxi, and a visit takes about 2 hours.
