Winter Garden Complex
Best time to visit
In winter, the best time to come is in the first half of the day, when the brightest sun rays fall through the glass roof. In summer, it is worth choosing a rainy day, when it is damp outside and a pleasant dryness lingers inside.
Budget tips
A ticket for an adult costs about 10 euros, with discounts for students and seniors. On Saturdays and holidays, the winter garden is more crowded, so it is better to choose weekdays.

About
Quick facts: It is the largest winter garden in Europe, covering an area of 1.1 hectares. The collection contains more than 3,000 plant species from all continents of the world.
Highlights: Inside hides an 8-meter-high waterfall that sounds louder than the street noise outside the walls. Walking among palm trees and tropical trees in winter, you can hear the songs of exotic birds while a blizzard rages outside.
Insider tips
- Bring a camera with a good lens, because the light falls unusually beautifully through the tall glass.
- The quietest time is early in the morning right after opening, when you can feel alone among the tropics.
- Look up above the palm trees, among the leaves hide small orchids that most visitors do not know about.
- Choose comfortable footwear, the floors are slippery in places due to moisture. Dress lightly, the temperature inside exceeds 25 degrees.
