What other travelers are saying about Jindai Botanical Gardens

This botanical garden is huge. I went during the plum flower season, there were so many beautiful trees. The plum flowers were pink, red, white, yellow. The trees were labelled. Overall, it was really good to see these plum flowers. There are other flowers as well like roses but you have to go during the season. I went in February and could only see the plum flowers. There is also a greenhouse that has a variety of plants that can be found in warm countries like India. I love plants, so I absolutely enjoyed this place. There are all sorts of plants from papaya trees to insectivorous plants. There are also rooms of orchids and other beautiful flowers. Outside the garden, there are shrines, restaurants and shops. You can renter as many times as you want as long as you show the ticket at the counter. I absolutely loved this place and would recommend it to anyone who loves flora and fauna!

A beautiful botanical gardens in the suburbs n so happened the season was for begonias which were flowering beautifully this spring. Quite a large garden so be prepared to spend about 2 hours plus for a stroll n view. There is also a large hot house with several interesting exhibits- ponds with various lilies n a large cacti exhibits. Also an impressive blooming of begonias n other flowering plants. Entrance fees are minimal and it’s an interesting garden for those who are botanically inclined or just the average person who loves colourful blooms. Thumbs up for this beautiful gardens n a truly wonderful Spring time stroll 👍 recommended for those with children and note also the delicious restaurants n food outlets within short walking distance ( first class soba 🍜 😋 n great Dashi n tempura)

Really beautiful gardens, for only 500 yen (around 3.30 dollars) it’s a great price. We also went to the Temple nearby.

Visited on May 24, 2023. Mainly went to see the rose garden but the entire park is so beautiful. Rose garden looks stunning in the afternoon due to sunlight. I spent the whole day here relaxing and walking into nature. Entry fee is ¥500. There is a bus from Chofu station that goes to the park.
