[2025 Tsukuba Attraction] Travel Guide for The Tsukuba Botanical Garden (Updated Jun)

I wanted to walk in nature full of greenery! So I went to Tsukuba Botanical Garden!!! Tsukuba Botanical Garden is a place where you can enter for only 320 yen, and it is free for high school students and younger every day! Every year, for the following three days, admission is free for everyone🙆♀️ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ⚫︎5/4 (Greenery Day) ⚫︎5/18 (International Museum Day) ⚫︎11/3 (Culture Day) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ※I also went on 2024/5/18 International Museum Day, when admission was free🌱 I went by car, but the parking lot in front of the botanical garden entrance was full🚗 I parked in a parking lot about 10 minutes away on foot and headed there👣 ※If the parking lot is full, the traffic controller will tell you where to park. The path from the parking lot to the botanical garden was already full of greenery, and it was very pleasant to walk (9th image) 🌱 When I entered the botanical garden, it was divided into a greenhouse where you can enjoy the tropical rainforest indoors, and an area where you can enjoy outdoors where the types of trees growing there are different depending on the location 👀 In an area of ​​14 hectares (about three times the size of the Tokyo Dome), you can see about 3,000 types of plants, including real banana trees and lemon trees that you don't usually see, and plants you've never seen before... It was all so rare and fun!!! Along the way, narrow paths appeared, and I walked with an exciting feeling like I was exploring ~ I haven't decided my plans for Golden Week yet!

#2024wish This botanical garden is not too wide but it has various plants inside. You can't go there by car because they don't provide parking lot, I like this environmental consideration. I went there as regular visitor and paid for 330¥ (sorry I don't remember well). The main building has a help desk, souvenir shop, vending machine, and common room for guest activity (especially for children). Getting more inside, I found endangered plant area which gave me important knowledge about japanese plant biodiversity. In the middle of the garden you'll find also greenhouse and museum. There's toilet too. And my favourite part is the water plant area. Overall, this place is so quiet and calm, very good for just relaxation or getting inspired by nature.

A mushroom exhibition in Tsukuba Botanical Gardens~Entry with Tsukuba University Student credential🆓 There are all kinds of mushrooms🍄 as soon as you enter the door. The toxicity of each one is marked next to it. I asked the volunteer sister and she said I can pick it up and smell it~ It's amazing. There are really many strange and colorful mushrooms hhh This exhibition has ended this year, but it is held every year. You can come back at this time next year. I saw a grandma's work among the award-winning works in the gallery. The grandma has insisted on participating in the きのこ exhibition for many sessions. I was very moved after reading the introduction of her work~
