Tropical Greenhouse

Uppsala


In contrast to the stunning baroque design of the Linnaean Gardens of Uppsala, where it is located, the greenhouse exhibits tropical species from around the world. Tours of the gardens in English (50kr) begin here, on Saturdays and Sundays at 2pm from June to August, and on the first Sunday of the month for the rest of the year. The tour cost includes admission into the greenhouse.
