The lower, upper and seaside parks are located on the main route of the garden. Currently, the garden consists of nine floristic sectors, those of Caucasian humid subtropics, East Asia, New Zealand, South America, the Himalayas, Mexico, Australia, and of the Mediterranean. The garden collection comprises 2.037 Taxonomic units of ligneous plants, including 104 of Caucasian origin. The rests are the representatives of the other phytogeographic flora.

9 km north of Batumi on rocky hills that touch the Black sea, there are these botanical gardens, meanwhile over one hundred years old. It was all started in the 1880s by Russian botanist Andrey Krasnov (not to be confused with his brother, the notorious fascist general Pyotr Krasnov). During Soviet times the gardens were developed into one of the largest in the former USSR. The gardens are huge indeed and consist of many different sections laid out over a 108 hectare hilly area. Each section is presenting the vegetation of one particular region. Personally I liked the East Asia and Australia sections most. Plan enough time to enjoy the gardens. You could easily spend a whole day there. For those who are not physically fit, there are electric cars available at an extra fee (5 lari one way). I found the maps rather confusing as they contain too much information (different color icons, markings and other details) and lack 'where you are' points. It is helpful to select the sections where you want to go beforehand. They are numbered. I hope in future, maps will be simpler and easier to use. Entrance fee: 15 lari Minibus 31 and bus 10 link to gardens to the city (0.50 lari one way). They go frequently also after 6PM, as they are also used by garden workers and other locals. The gardens close at 6PM. It means you can not enter anymore after that time, but you still have plenty of time to get out later.

This is a relatively large and beautiful garden, it is a must-visit, you will see plants from several geographic regions all over the world, visit the waterfall, and if you are feeling adventurous you can ride the zipline. Starting from the top of the hill where Mother of Georgia & Narikala Fortress reside, all the way down to the old city where you can visit the Mosque and sulfur baths, this large garden is a perfect escape from the city in the city, you can walk around, relax, breath in the fresh air & feel the nature. I recommend going up to the garden using the cable car, a quick stop at the Mother of Georgia, and Narikala Fortress, then visit the garden, there you will find yourself near the zipline.

The end of a busy day sight seeing, the gardens were our last visit. Time to chill and wander around slowly taking in all the different plant and trees species. We sat around the huge tree just admiring its superb stature. The little ‘church’ was a surprise discovery in a hollowed our tree. Cost only one Lari and on a gorgeous day like we had was well worth the visit. It can be walked to from the centre in about 20 mins.
