Puerto Vallarta boasts numerous attractions: paradise beaches, an exquisite culinary circuit, museums, and impressive old buildings that tell the city’s history. Thus, through its constructions and attractions, a network of must-visit places is formed to explore and be amazed. But if, in addition to that, you seek to connect with nature, delight in some magical postcards, and find peace within yourself, then you must not miss visiting the beautiful Botanical Garden of the city.
Recently created just a few years ago, this site has managed to position itself as one of the most complete and dynamic gardens in Latin America. It features hundreds of species of flowers in an endless array of colors. In just four years, the Botanical Garden in Puerto Vallarta has grown immensely and today is one of the most visited places, both by curious tourists and locals seeking peace.
A journey through the wild trails of the Botanical Garden of Cabo invites visitors to fully relax, breathe fresh air, perceive exclusive floral scents, and find the perfect balance between body, mind, and soul. It is an area dedicated to conserving the natural environment, spanning more than eight hectares, with cobblestone paths opening up where majestic oaks, orchids, and various species of native bromeliads rise alongside.
Within the Botanical Garden, you can walk and discover hundreds of colorful birds, plants, and flowers of all sizes and shapes. Additionally, you can swim peacefully in the outdoor natural water pools. The pathways within the premises also lead to a series of greenhouses aimed at preserving endangered species, especially those from which vanilla is extracted and strangler figs.
With several nurseries of aquatic plants, the Botanical Garden of Puerto Vallarta invites visitors to learn much about various species and raise awareness of the importance of respecting and taking care of the environment. In a city dominated by its imposing tourist developments and its majestic luxury hotels and comfort, the Garden serves as a true green lung that strives to stay healthy and survive.
Inside the park, you will find a lovely and friendly restaurant known as The Golden Farm, a place where you can enjoy delicious dishes from the best regional cuisine along with a panoramic view of the impressive Mother Mountain.
And it’s not just plants in this paradise of Puerto Vallarta! Along with the local flora, animals of various species coexist, among which the mythical jaguars stand out, true symbols of Maya culture (as well as being a sacred animal for many of the region’s inhabitants).
Are you really going to miss an opportunity like this? The Botanical Garden of Puerto Vallarta awaits you!
