  I always like visiting botanic gardens. I was a member of new gardens until moving to Bristol. This is a lot smaller than Kew but it did not disappoint. The Bristol botanic garden has a wide variety of plants and they were all very well looked after. As it is smaller, you can see everything within a day, unlike Kew. The garden is well planned and if you follow it's route, you can see everything and will probably give you some surprises. Whether you are planning to visit with friends, family or on your own, it will offer a lovely day out, even on a rainy day. Don't miss out their greenhouses, which offers a wide range of unusual tropical plants. Great one if you are visiting on a cold day :) students, children and University of Bristol staff can visit for free, everyone else will be £5.50. They can only except cash. If you plan to visit frequently, I'd recommend becoming a member, which is £25 a year with unlimited visits. Staff are friendly. They will give you a sticker which is your entry ticket and a map. They encourage you to bring food yourself but there is a cafe. They do shut for a few months over the winter, and I think they closes at 1630. Do check their opening times before going.

  A beautiful oasis in the city, I always love visiting at Easter for the sculpture festival

  I didn't know this existed, but came here a few years ago and it was quite nice. A peaceful environment, with a diverse array of plants. Overall, nice to walk around.

  Hidden away behind a normal looking house entrance, the wealth and variety of displays is quite surprising - well, it is a university endeavour, after all.

  I did not know there was a botanical garden in Bristol, but once I knew it was ontop of the to-do list. It did not disappoint. We were greeted by friendly staff who gave us a quick synopsis and an umbrella. The gardens are fantastic, we didn't eat at the restaurant, lots of information and alot to see. Definitely worth a visit, it doesn't feel like your in the city!
