The glasshouse with its tropical temperatures is a nice escape from the Helsinki winter!

Construction work going on 'til 2015. The main gate and most of the park is closed off. Entrance is through Northern gate next to Cafe Viola.

Well, you should go there on summer or spring may be. Cuz in November there's nothing to look at, only in conservatories. Expected to see more flowers.

Красивый, ухоженный ботанический сад. Много цветов и скамеек. Пару лет назад был получше Ботанического сада в Питере. Отличительной черта сада являются наглые белки! Очень наглые белки!

Сюда стоит зайти зимой, чтобы побродить меж тропических растений и выпить чашечку кофе или чая рядом с орхидеями и пальмами????
