Montreal Botanical Garden
(Jardin Botanique de Montreal)

Worth visiting! There are some impressive pictures going around about this garden but those are from an exhibit they had a long time ago (they were called living sculptures, the most popular being the one with the woman and a small waterfall in her hand). However, the garden is still wonderful! There's a lot to explore and the part that impressed us the most was the Chinese Garden, really stunning! You can easily spend a lot of hours exploring, relaxing. There's a place or two where you can get beverages and also a restaurant at the exit but we haven't tried them. We only wished the exhibit about First Nations was a bit more put together and had more information. Other than that it was great! Buy tickets online, it's faster.

Such a special experience during our first trip to Montreal. As most of the reviews I found, this is definitely a stop to add when visiting this beautiful city. Entrance was very fairly priced, and certainly worth it. The different areas are so marvelous and unique in their own way. Prepare to walk, so wear comfortable shoes, but it's also very well suited for pedestrians and folks with wheelchairs or strollers. There's also snack stands and a restaurant, which was so nice! I was tempted to buy tickets in advance but I winged it and just bought them there. It was super quick, all in a well guided self service station. Perhaps on busy holidays or special events, it may be a good idea. Apparently there's also live music and events hosted inside the garden, do make sure to check their schedule of events. Make sure to add this botanical garden to your travel to do list!

We visited the Montreal Botanical Garden a few weeks ago for the Festival of Lights, and it was absolutely stunning! The night setting with all the beautiful lights made for a magical atmosphere — perfect for an autumn or Halloween-themed date, or even a family outing. The music ambiance added to the experience, making it feel like stepping into another world. Definitely a must-visit in the fall! 🎃🌠

I’ll probably edit this review because currently my mind is a mess of gratitude but I just want to say thank you for this incredible place. I come here at least once a week just to wander. There’s so many side trails and paths and little corners of discovery and wonder, I spend an hour here each time. I’ve never once left disappointed or in a worse mood than when I came. I am so, so grateful for these gardens and for each and every person who supports them, whether it’s financially through their taxes or tickets; or through their time and labour; or just through a single visit. It’s my favourite place and part of living in this city, and I am so grateful to live here.

I liked this garden and could take some nice pics. My favourite was the Chinese garden by far. Very unique and colourful. I also had a great time walking around. The place is huge. I think I walked for like 3 plus hours. I did notice some flowers were dry and burnt maybe because of the heat but it looks like they need to be better cared. They have water stations around the garden to refill your bottle or just to drink water. The flower sculpture they have in google maps doesn’t exist anymore there. It was shown once 11 years ago if I remember correctly. I only say this because I thought I will see it and got disappointed after, I wished I knew before. Anyways had a great time there!
