Johannesburg Botanic Gardens

Johannesburg Botanic Gardens
This park is a mix of meticulously tended lawns and fountained terraces. Creative landscaping, traditional gardening methods, splashes of summer colour and subdued carpets of leaves in autumn constitute this botanic masterpiece. The stairways are lined with flowering cherry trees while old wood benches nestle in amongst the silver birches. Sundays herald croquet balls being driven over the green lawns, tea and cucumber sandwiches. Abundant flower beds feature as a backdrop in many bridal photographs while the herb garden remains an attraction to many. If you're an ambler, these splendid gardens must surely be first on your list of intended visits. Location: Thomas Bowler Street Emmarentia Phone: (011)7820517 Fax: (011)7820517
