Went here during our final few hours in Bogota, mainly to escape a bit from the grittiness, congestion, and smog of the city's streets. Easy to access. Good variety of flora. Excellent place for taking long walks away from crowds in a dense city! Inadequate descriptions, even in Spanish, made it a challenge to know what I was observing. But touring the garden with apps like iNaturalist, PictureThis, and even Merlin Bird ID elevates the quality of the garden. I recommend a visit! Note: I only walked the basic grounds of the garden, and for only about one hour.

Although I haven't practiced in many years, I'm a biology major and really enjoyed the Tropicario's overview of Colombian ecosystems from superparamos to dry forests. Particularly worth a visit to the Tropicario if you are not traveling extensively in Colombia, and won't get a chance to see these landscapes in their real location.

Lovely 50 acres garden outside of Bogotá. After a few days in the hectic city this is a great place to come relax. Incredible variety of plants and lots of animals can be seen as well. The lake area helps keep it cool.

One thing is that they could use more information and signage. What I did was download a plant finder app on my phone, and just used that. But really would be nice if there were more signs.

We went on a Saturday and enjoyed our stroll around the grounds and the greenhouses. Recommend for a break from city life if you have the time in Bogota.

The botanical garden has a nice architecture with lakes, smaller ares with special plants and three big modern greenhouses. I visited in February and there was not much blooming except for the roses. It is well maintained but there is a lack of information of the plant names. The greenhouses are a bit disappointing.

This is an amazing experience. There is so much to see and the views are beautiful. Guided tours are offered or you can wander around on your own. Take advantage of this gem and go explore the different plants, flowers, ponds, birds, fish, and nature. Tickets are very economical and this is a great place for individuals and families.

Superbly organized and well-kept gardens. Lots of trees from all over Colombia. Very reasonable (low!) cost to enter. Helpful staff on-hand for questions. Waterfalls, lakes, trees, and many birds to enjoy. Small coffee shop near the lads offers a quick food/drink option. Highly recommend a visit here!

A botanic garden in the 4.66th parallel and an altitude, with the tropical arboreta that we failed to visit and admired in vitro- the climatic green houses, the rosaries and a serene variety that we adequately labelled but not generously for the non spanish speaker. A pride of the town, unique at least in Colombia. Extraordinary for the alpine tundra terrains too (the Páramo eco habitat), the orchideum, the good care that it has been taken care and the ciudad location- you have Parque Bolivar near and the Salmona library. A necessary stop even for the reserved and not aficionado. A cool time and a clear day preferably and devote time.
