Kaisaniemi botanic garden — Attraction in Helsinki sub-region

It’s not big but a lovely place in the summer. I enjoy the most the inside - the smells in the winter and the bench to sit down and relax / read on are very peaceful and relaxing and lovely. The cafe staff wasn’t the nicest last time I was there so there is only 4 stars. The staff in the Botanical Garden should be heavily oriented pro customer and pro visitors. They should be a priority- the customer comes first culture is as important as the manners and a fluent English language. Which is especially matters because it is a top tourist spot.

My only complaint would be that once you've gone through the entire collection, you have to walk the same way back (down narrow paths with a lot of people walking the opposite direction). This caused for some 'traffic' and I wished the process had been streamlined somehow.

We went there on a Friday where it was free entrance, so I can't comment much on value for money. I don't remember the price entrée, but I think I would have also paid and enjoyed it just as much, if we hadn't been able to get in for free.

Overall, would definitely pay this a visit again and recommend it to...
