For those with an interest in nature, this complex has three different offerings. I have been to two of them and found them both great. The botanical gardens are enjoyable even for people who do not have a big interest in flowers. The centerpiece is a Chinese pavilion that is truly beautiful and there are lots of peaceful places to wander and enjoy a leisurely walk. In the autumn, there is a lantern festival in the evenings that is really nice. There are usually Chinese lantern sculptures as well as installations that feature timed lighting effects and music. The biodome is fantastic for anybody who wants to see animals. It recreates three ecosystems and allows you to see a variety of animals in a simulation of their natural environment. The penguins are a big crowd-pleaser. The recreation of our region's environment includes some otters who are frequently playing and fun to watch.

Montreal espace pour la vie (Space for Life) is a trio consisting of the Montreal Botanical Garden, the Insectarium and the BioDome. I have visited all the three and they are amazing. I am not fond of seeing the insects, so I could have skipped that but the Botanical garden and the Biodome are just awesome. Biodome is a unique experience in which one can see all different climates, the Tundra, the Tropical, the Rainforest and animals living in these climates. It's enjoyable for all ages. The garden is huge and very beautiful too. Great work by the Space for Life creators and the team.

Can’t even think of the right words to describe how beautiful my experience was here! My boyfriend and I came here on a whim, as I always enjoy checking out nurseries and plant shops when traveling. SO happy we came in! Only a portion of the museum was closed off due to weather/temperature, but we were still able to go in most of the greenhouses. Pictures do not even do this place justice. You can see the care and knowledge that goes in to each of these greenhouses and all of the plants in them. I will definitely be visiting again next time I am in Canada.

A breathtaking greenhouse with literally hundreds of plants from all over the world. I was in awe the whole time at the amount and variety of fauna in this one building. Overall, I would highly recommend coming here if you are already checking out the Botanical Gardens.

I spent 5 solid hours at the Botanical Garden during a perfect weather day and still did not finish. It is a magical place with an open and willing staff to answer questions. The pictures speak for themselves. I will definitely return on my next trip to Montreal.

I recommend buying the annual pass if you plan to visit all 5 attractions as it will will save you alot of money rather than buying separate tickets 🎫
