Montréal's bountiful Botanical Gardens are the second largest in the world. The gardens opened in 1931 and now feature 30 beautiful outdoor displays and 10 exhibition greenhouses. Each display offers visitors a view of a different climate, country or flowering style. An insectarium is also part of the gardens and displays countless varieties of insects. One of the most popular stops in the gardens is the six-acre Montréal-Shanghai Dream Lake Garden. |

| | This is a great Botanical garden. I had planned to spend a morning there but I ended up spending the whole day. There is so much to do: gardens from countries and regions all over the world, a section for medicinal plants, poisonous plants, innovative gardening, aquatic gardening, rose gardens, flowering beds, orchards. The greenhouses have a wide selection of orchids that are changed frequently to provide flowering ones for display all the time. The butterfly house is small but nice. Most plants have labels so you know what they are. |
