Sehr schöne und außergewöhnliche Pflanzen! Kostenloser Eintritt und mit Parkplätzen- einfach Top!
Ein sehr schöner Ort an dem man die Ruhe genießen kann und einige interessante und imposante Pflanzen bestaunen kann.👍👍👍
Uns jedenfalls hat es sehr gut gefallen.

Sehr interessant, dass es mitten in Kiel so ein großes Areal mit so vielen unterschiedlichen Pflanzen gibt.
Wir waren speziell wegen der Lichteffekte da. Hatte mir etwas mehr erhofft. Aber: der botanische Garten ist wirklich klasse und ich muss hier noch mal bei Tag (und Sonne) hin. Ist auf jeden Fall einen oder mehrere Besuche wert

Kostenfreier Eintritt, allerdings wird er bereits 15 Uhr geschlossen. Wenn man mit Ruhe durchgehen will, sollte man rechtzeitig da sein. Für die Gewächshäuser sollte man sich schon eine Stunde zum Ansehen vornehmen. Das Außengelände ist auch sehr weitläufig, so dass man auch dort einige Zeit zubringen kann. Vielen Dank an den älteren Herrn im Gewächshaus, der uns viel Wissenswertes erzählt und gezeigt hat. Man spürte die Hingabe für seine Arbeit, er war sehr authentisch. Dankeschön! 🙏🏻
Ich freue mich über eine „hilfreich“-Bewertung, da auch ich mich an fremden Orten an Bewertungen orientiere.

Richtig schön angelegt und die Gewächshäuser haben eine riesige Anzahl von unterschiedlichen Blumen und Bäume. Super auch, das es viele Bänkchen gibt. Danke dafür, so kann man die Natur schön auf sich wirken lassen, während man sich kurz ausruht.
Ein sehr interessanter Garten, viele Pflanzen die man nicht kannte. Sehr schön angelegt.
Besonders das Tropenhaus mit den ganzen Verschiedenen Kakteen, Bananen-und Zitronenbaum.
Sehr gut finde ich auch die reichlichen Sitzgelegenheiten.
Beeindruckend auch der Berg aus verschiedenen Steinen.
Auf jeden Fall zu jeder Jahreszeit ein Besuch wert

Der Botanische Garten ist ein Ausflug wert. Die riesigen Seerosen sind schon sehr beeindruckend und auch sonst ist der Park an der angrenzenden Universität sehenswert. Die Pflanzen sind herrlich anzusehen und die Ruhe war fantastisch, weil wir ziemlich früh dort waren.
Ich habe selten so eine wunderschöne Pflanzenwelt gesehen. Ich war total überwältigt und meine Tochter auch. Also informativ für jedes Alter. Toll das es keinen Eintritt kostet daher haben wir gern eine Spende da gelassen. Der Eintritt für die Schmetterlinge ist Human und auf jeden Fall sein Geld wert. Ein unbeschreibliches Erlebnis. Sehr empfehlenswert👍
I came with no expectations and was amazingly surprised!
So big, many different areas.
The greenhouses are beautiful!
They even had some colorful poisonous frogs! (Behind glass, of course)
When I went there was also a butterfly area, I don't know if that is there every time but if it is there, absolutely worth it

Fantastic way to spend a few hours in Kiel! It was an enjoyable walk and many name plates on the plants so they could be identified. Highly recommended

On a cool spring day we loved to explore the tropical/subtropical glass houses, perfectly warm rainforest. The spring flowers were gorgeous.
