Munich-Nymphenburg Botanical Garden
Botanischer Garten München-Nymphenburg
A major German botanical garden next to Nymphenburg Palace, with large greenhouse complexes and an alpine garden. It can be visited on the same day as the palace.
The Munich-Nymphenburg Botanical Garden opened in 1914. Covering about 21 hectares, it grows roughly 14,000 plant species and is a state botanical collection of Bavaria. Outdoors you will find a systematic garden, a rose garden, a rhododendron valley and an alpine garden. The greenhouse complex includes a tropical rainforest house, a giant water lily pond, an orchid house and a cactus house, and it is worth a visit in winter too. Admission is about 6 euros, and opening hours are shorter in winter. The garden lies on the north side of the Nymphenburg Palace park, about 15 minutes' walk from the palace, or you can take tram 17 to Botanischer Garten stop.
