Helen Fowler Library Denver Botanic Gardens Reviews

A must visit! Nice place for family yet romantic for a date. It rained but it was so relax to just watch the rain near a little lake.

A must go doesn't matter if have lived here your whole life or you are just visiting food is allowed so it's a great place for a romantic picnic

Lots of windy trails, perfect for pictures with the one you love or the breakup you were not expecting.

Very lovely place. There were even more plants than I was expecting. Easy place to spend many hours. The bonsai trees weren't out yet in early May.

Lovely spot a bit removed from the downtown but worth the trek.

The botanical garden was very gorgeous, there are many different styles and many plants/flowers from different regions. Unfortunately the indoor plants/flowers are closed due to covid. Be sure to schedule and reserve your visit prior and be sure to wear a mask.

Always enjoy the Botanic Gardens. They have terrific areas like the Japanese gardens and the Monet pool.

This place is just great. Even in the winter when most things are dormant, there are still things to see. It's still a beautiful walk in a peaceful environment.

My first experience at Denver Botanic Gardens was for a concert. The venue is lovely, but here are some things you need to know before you go. Admission is general, so get there early. It s outdoor seating, so be prepared for weather changes. It s BYOB ONLY, and your drinks must be in the original container. A very limited number of light menu items are available to purchase, so you might also want to bring food. Finally, bring your own chair, and make sure that the back of the seat is no taller than 26 , or you won t be permitted to use it. Think low beach chair... I enjoyed the venue and would like to tour it in the daylight.

The Denver Botanical Gardens is one of the nicest gardens in the US. That is my opinion, no one else. There are different areas where you can experience Asia Garden, The open plains plant growth. If you enjoy being outside around beautiful gardens, flowers and smaller architecture this is the place. Now there are some building (AC) that are open to the public for your viewing pleasure. The Botanical Gardens are located: 1007 York Ave, Denver, CO 80206. The signage is very clear to see from the road. There are handicap facilities, doors, aisles and any other thing that may be needed. The Botanicals Gardens has music in the garden throughout the year. Lights in the winter. There is a 3 level parking structure that is free. There is also a parking area in the front which gives you access In front, I only saw 1 handicap spot. There was a sculpture from the Chilhuly Garden and Glass in Seattle, WA. I would highly recommend seeing this beautiful garden.

It's a beautiful outdoor experience for the family, often containing great art I stalations throughout the grounds. The only negative would be that the cost for everything (food, entry, gift shop, etc) is high.

Buildings are closed rn but it s still worth going to

This place is beautiful. One of the best botanic gardens I think. The Japanese gardens are my favorite. Wear good walking shoes and plan for a couple hours at least.

Beautiful blossoms of light walk. The garden was so magical!

Beautiful location for a stroll or personal photography. Lots of different plants and areas. Gift shop full of many botanic related items.

Just beautiful in October! Some changes were under construction so places were blocked off. Otherwise it was a nice stroll amongst gorgeous flora and flowers!

Beautiful! I loved the Monet Water Garden and the Japanese garden, but all of it was incredible. We went on a very hot day in August, but the water features and shade gardens made it bearable. The bistro by the Monet garden is delicious and offers a variety of items that are either dairy and/or gluten-free or can be modified to be dairy/gluten-free. There is also a large selection of vegetarian items.

Beautiful gardens and so much plants and herbs to identify. It's a nice place to walk around and enjoy the scenery as well as practice your photography skills.

This place is awesome! Very relaxing. We love both sides.

Best concert venue in Denver! Beautiful grounds and plants.

This was my first time going to Denver Botanical Gardens. I liked the fact that you can pay for your ticket at the kiosk versus standing in a line. It was fast and easy!!
It was Beautiful I absolutely love how it looks in the fall! They had Dia de los Muertos statues that we're amazingly beautiful! I will definitely be back in the summer!

We enjoyed our visit and think we will get an annual pass next time.

So beautiful! They have some really amazing features here. My kids and I loved that there were bunnies living here that you would see as you made your way through. The staff was so very kind, I left my sunglasses here and was here visiting from Utah and I called them and they mailed them back for me. All my kids and my sister and I really had a good time exploring. A must see if you haven't been.

Extraordinary what they've created. Must see to believe.

Beautiful garden and amazing orchids on display! A must see if you re in Denver!

Absolutely beautiful!! Peaceful place to hang out or to walk. Mildy educational as well. There's even a kids place fun for kids! The cafes had good food and all the staff was very friendly! I'll be going back!

Such a gorgeous place, great people who always help when asked questions about all the plants

Beautiful manicured gardens, have fun spending hours here! Military discount or yearly rates available. Pack your lunch and SPF, or try something local from their grille.

Incredible selection of plants and flowers over a large amount of property. Very scenic and perfect on a nice day in the city

Lovely place to visit and just take in the beautiful plants.

Absolutely wonderful. We go every year oh, and this was the very best.

Beautiful even in October! It's a lot bigger than I was expecting and we also happened to go on a Bank of America free admission day on a whim. We spent over 2 hours here when we planned on 30 minutes. Definitely worth a visit! Very neat flowers and plants to see! And the tropical rooms are a great way to stay warm on a chilly day!

It would be cool if they sold alcoholic beverages like the zoo does. Other than that it's great :)

I. Love. This. Place. I live in Boulder, but make regular visits to the Botanical Gardens as a member. A great place to remote work! Food and drinks. And of course...the plants!

Super awesome to see plants. Really like the rainforest enclosures.
And very fond of that they have an exhibit that features plants completely pollinated by bees.
It was very early spring so a bunch if stuff was not very fancy but I still loved reading the fact charts!

One of the best Botanic Gardens I have seen. Beautiful water gardens.

Great experience for Blossoms of light. Was lacking some music in the background but was worth the money

Beautiful place. Masks required and there are some buildings closed due to Covid but there was still a lot to view. I would say it's a solid spot for a second date while also achieving social distancing Check it out, you won't regret it. Wear sunsceen!!!!

Obviously all the plants are well kept, beautiful landscapes, kind workers and clean cafe! Handicap accessible for most areas. And not too mention fairly cheap, especially with student discount!! Be sure to download the plant app they have, you can scan codes and learn more about different species

Lots of beautiful plants, winding paths, and benches where you can sit and take it all in.

World-class botanic garden. Perhaps the best we've been to.

Beautiful gardens! I wish they had more tropical habitats though. Most of the gardens are outside with not much greenhouses.

#noparking denver botanic gardens is great. But there is little to no parking in an area that is very congested. Had to park half a mile away.

Great variety of plants. Very scenic garden to stroll through. Very peaceful.

At this time it is not as beautiful as in the middle of spring. It is also because you have snowed out of date. The plants have not yet budded and the artificial lakes are not repaired

Beautiful, intricate, winding, interactive. Very enjoyable

This is a very nice collection of plants and a great afternoon trip. Check out the tropical area for a very large orchid specimen. Also, some of the water plants are very unique.

This place is the coolest but hottest little big garden in Colorado. Pay for entry is not that bad and all of the flowers and little different places throughout is makes up for it. You can't play plants VS zombies here but you will feel like a zombie after burning up without the proper things. Don't burn up out there.

Really lovely place, we were able to walk the whole thing in 2 hours

Classes are priced to exclude regular people and young people. $360 to decorate an egg and listen to a lecture? You should permit members of the community who aren t retired with too much money or members of a country club to attend.

I always love this place!! I go here so often I should buy an apartment across the street

Not the best in early spring, but still has so much to explore. If you have children there is a great interactive Colorado park above the parking garage, which is included in the original price. During the latter part of the spring and summer its speechless on his beautiful this place is. The Japanese garden is a wonderful place, which you have to see for yourself.

I love the Denver Botanic Gardens. There is a reason to come here all 4 seasons!

They have some really cool plants sometimes. They had a plant called the Corpse Flower and it smells like rotting flesh, it was pretty gross.

Lovely place to stroll around and admire nature's beauty. Many paths to take, don't try to do them all. Very friendly help at the information desk. Cafe available for food and drinks. Enjoyable way to spend a morning or afternoon, or even all day.

Amazing gardens of all types to enjoy. Loved going with my fiance!

Beautiful. There was a wedding going on while we were there. Gorgeous.

Even in winter, the outside gardens are serene and beautiful.

Beautiful day at the gardens, easy parking, lots of benches to rest, amazing to see so many wo nders of mother nature in one place. And we didn't get to see all of it!
