The garden is home to over 22,000 species of plants and flowers, making it one of the most significant large botanical gardens globally.
Covering an area of 43 hectares, the Berlin Botanical Garden was established a century ago in 1904. It features multiple greenhouses with varying temperature zones, used to cultivate plants from around the world. Surrounded by beautiful scenery, the garden includes exotic plants such as orchids, palms, ferns, and cacti grown within Art Nouveau-style glass greenhouses. Lush water lilies and small waterfalls in ponds add charm to the display. Within the Berlin Botanical Garden, there is also a botanical museum, a large exhibition hall for plant specimens and fossils, a scientific library, and numerous Art Nouveau-style glass greenhouses. Among them, the greenhouse known as the "Große Tropenhaus" (Great Tropical House) is the largest glasshouse in the world.
