Palmehuset — Attraction in Copenhagen Municipality

Don’t believe all the 5 star reviews with 30 photos!

The collection of plants you can buy in a supermarket is growing. The price just went from 60 DKK to 70 DKK to reflect that the middle greenhouse is closed, the carnivorous plants are packed away and ALL the orchids are gone. 16% more to see 30% less.

If there is a strategy involved, it’s not to appeal to the guests. I used to visit at least twice a month, now it’s once or twice a year.

Still, the greenhouse can be a lovely little oasis. The singing frogs really make you feel you’re in the jungle if you close your eyes, but it is in every way a mere shadow of what it used to be.

Edit: Dear Sophie, It’s a pity you didn’t find (or bothered to make) the time to address the issues I raised, but such is the function of a communications department.

My point: You’ve reduced the exhibition by 30-50% without reducing the already high admission fee.

Is the Botanical Garden going to mimic the supermarkets and defraud consumers by first giving less for the same price, and then increasing the price for the “full package”, in this case the new improved greenhouse? At...

The palm house is highly recommended for any plant/butterfly lovers (and just as recommended for everyone else too). The entrance fee is included in the Copenhagen card.

This part of the botanical gardens features several connected greenhouses which showcases many plants from around the world. Make sure you check out all parts of each section before you move to the next section as the entrance to the greenhouses is not the exit. It may be difficult (or impossible) to bring prams or wheelchairs into the greenhouses as the path is a little narrow. The central greenhouse with the palm trees has two winding staircases which give you access to an elevated platform. If you are wearing the appropriate clothing and footwear, it is worthwhile to take a look.

The second section of the greenhouses contains cacti, orchids, and butterflies so remember to watch your step. Depending on the time of year, different butterflies may make...

It is a nice enough Palm House and Butterfly House. Not as memorable as Kew Gardens, but worth a look. You can buy tickets at the entrance or you get a combo ticket when visiting the Natural History Museum. The paths are quite narrow, particularly in the Butterfly House. With a lot of people inside, it can feel claustrophobic. The top walkway was crowded and took time to get around as there was a one-way system in place. There are a good number of butterflies, and they were quite pretty. You do need to carefully watch young children as the butterflies land on the floor. I had the unfortunate experience of seeing someone's child stamp on one. A small sized wheelchair could make it around the lower section on the Palm House, though help would be required holding doors open. The upper walkway and the Butterfly House are...
