Saitama City Horticultural Garden

Flow of the course

About this spot

A botanical garden run by Saitama City, adjoining Osaki Park (大崎公園). Tropical plants grow thick in the large greenhouse, while seasonal flower beds and fruit trees spread out in the open air. Admission is free, so it is welcome that you can drop in casually and walk as much as you like. The greenhouse has an atmosphere all its own, and children stare wide-eyed at the towering leaves and unusual flowers. Being right next to Osaki Park, you can simply walk on to the lunch spot, which makes moving around easy.

Tips

The greenhouse gets hot and humid in summer, so a short visit rather than a long stay is more comfortable. The outdoor flower beds get strong sunlight, so do not forget a hat. Opening hours and closing days may change, so checking in advance gives peace of mind.

Best time to visit

About 50 minutes. The greenhouse is humid, so early morning is easier to bear
