The Jerusalem Botanical Gardens are situated in Yehuda Burla Street, close to the Hebrew University campus at Givat Ram, and round the corner from the Israel Museum and the Bible Lands Museum.
It is a delight to visit at any time of the year , but especially at Autumn / Fall/Sukkot time when the leaves are starting to fall and the bright shots of color contrast the greens and grays .
Take a ride in the mini train and then alight and take a long walk along the paths and winding stairs which will lead you from one section to the next.
The gardens are divided into the different continents of the world each with plants and flowers indigenous to their area with a large central lake and visitors center.
Over 10,000 varieties of plants from all over the world can be seen here.
There is also a tropical greenhouse and a special Butterfly House which has been reopened just for Chol Homed Sukkot.
Descriptions and explanations are given in English and Hebrew
ENJOY YOUR VISIT
