More than 7000 plant species grow on the 140 hectare of this wonderful park. The avenue with majestic king palms makes great visual impact.
The Botanical Garden is one of the best places in Rio de Janeiro for a day out. To go with children, to take long walks, to take photos and to see the statue of Christ from a different angle.
Here you are in the middle of nature without necessarily lying on the beach. You escape from the sun without having to face a shopping center.
And it’s also worth repeating this visit, because every time you see a new animal, a new flower, a new piece of park.
Like, for example, on the video below the monkeys, which live here in large numbers in freedom.

From Copacabana or Ipanema you best hire a taxi or go by Uber to the park. Taking the bus is circumstantial.
Before you visit the park you should check price and opening hours on the official website of the botanical garden or on the Rio tour website .
