These are nice to visit for a short while, but unless you are extremely interested in trees and flowers there is little to occupy you. It takes about an hour to walk around the whole park, and it seems to be a good date location for many young Sri Lankans! I personally wouldn't go to the gardens again as its... More

This is a lovely peaceful place and so green and beautiful, really enjoyed our visit here and would highly recommend while in the Kandy area

The gardens are expansive and clean, if you have time on your hands and are looking for something to do I would say it MAY be worth a visit.

I used to be a botanist and horticulturist some years ago, so visited quite a few botanical gardens.

Was there when they has just planted but layout was great ..warni mg..it is huge! And requires A LOT of walking.

It's just gorgeous place with all plants, flowers, trees, butterflies and birds:-) we spend there 3 hours walking around and taking lots of photos. It was so cool to watch fruit bats (hundreds of them on trees) flying in daylight. 100% recommend this place, and again money well spent

Great place to walk around for part of your day. Plenty of interesting plant life to be seen, as well as Sri Lankan public displays of affection! Don't forget to bring your plus one! Highly recommended.

There are so many endemic trees and plants. You will also see parrots, fruit bats and other birds. Have enough time to enjoy that place!

Peradeniya Botanical Gardens in Kandy is a very peaceful place to visit and wander around. It has the most anazing collection of tress and a fascinating colony of fruit bats(Flying Foxes). We spent 2 hrs here but could easily have spent double the time
