Super chilled here, all worries fly away. Time seems to have stopped. I spent several hours wondering around on a solo trip with my music. The entry was only 3.50 euros as I got the Frankfurt pass (originally 7 euros for adult). There are many greenhouses which allows you to deeply immerse in a green wonder world. You will feel like you are in a jungle, safari, meadows, forest, desert etc all in one day. There hectares of land and many flora. There was some lovely Christmas vibes, a beautiful butterfly photo exhibition as well as a bufferfly house for the real ones. Opened in 1871, you can see traces of history wherever you go. Stunning.

Frankfurt's botanical garden
#palmengarten #frankfurt
Just what makes this garden so special? First, there is a vast number of native plant species, which are displayed in biocenoses modeled after their natural habitats. We encounter the most common mixed-forest communities such as beech and oak-hornbeam forests, along with plant communities that are characteristic for extremely dry habitats. The Botanical Garden places special emphasis on the regional context; among others, the displays include plants from the Schwanheim Dune, the Berger Hang (Berger Slope) and the oligotrophic basalt grasslands of the Wetterau. An additional focus is on endangered plant species that are included in the “Red Lists.” More than 500 of these can be found in the Botanical Garden, easily recognized by the red information signs. For these endangered species, different preservation cultures are maintained that are descriptively presented and explained in specially designed beds. They not only include wild species but cultivated plants as well, as the latter are frequently represented in our gardens in many valuable horticultural varieties.
