The botanical gardens in Medellin are akin to an oasis in the desert. The hustle and bustle of the city seems to magically disappear when you enter. The space is not excessively large but provides a good 45 minutes of walking. I didn't find that much variety of plant species but it did indeed seem pretty natural to the region. Cost of entry was free and we had a great lunch inside the gardens.

A nice place to visit, no matter whether during the day to enjoy the beautiful gardens or at night when there is a festival happening.

Not a lot to see if there is not an event going on like the flower festival week. There is a nice restaurant inside called In Situ. Book a seat there, arrive early, and walk the grounds in about 30 minutes. Advantage is it is very close to metro. Not so safe in the evenings.

Nice, little peaceful getaway within the city. If you are looking for a leisurely afternoon, and wish to wander around the various trees, plants and ponds, then this might be a stop for you. I recommend bringing a book and/or picnic because it doesn't take very long to actually walk around the gardens. There is also a good restaurant in the gardens called "In Situ" that is worth a stop if you are in the mood to pay a little extra for the fancy atmosphere and gourmet food.
