One of the best if not the best botanical garden I've been to. The rose gardens are beautiful and with so many rose varieties (much more than I knew existed).

You can also find sunbeds, or even pick a spot on the grass to have a picnic. In the other half of the garden there's also a children's playground, and two show stages (one for children), a you can find toilets at 2/3 entrances. There are more things that you just cannot describe, but have to see for yourself. I've already told a few of my friends it's so beautiful that I felt like crying. I would advise coming before 5pm as the greenhouses close at 5 (the whole garden is open until 8pm in summer). In the morning there will probably be less people than in the afternoon.
