Tay International | Puerto Vallarta Botanical Garden | Bird release 🇲🇽#mexico @tayinternational | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
The Vallarta Botanical Garden is a bit far from downtown Puerto Vallarta, it’s very much worth a visit, you can also combine it with a trip to Mismaloya Beach or Boca de Tomatlan, though I prefer to concentrate completely on the gardens and the fabulous restaurant they have there: Hacienda de Oro. Enjoy the surrounding nature, the flowers, trees, lush jungle, you can also rest on one of the many couches and seats on the different terraces and just relax in the breeze, the sound of birds, and the general calm of the place.
The Vallarta Botanical Gardens are spread out over a 64-acre area (26 hectares) located 15 miles (35-40 minutes by car) south of Puerto Vallarta, driving along the highway south that goes to Barra de Navidad. You’ll pass Los Arcos, Mismaloya, Boca de Tomatlán, and Las Juntas y Los Veranos, before getting there. The Gardens are 1300 ft (420m) above sea level.
Vallarta Botanical Gardens AC (asociación civil) was founded in 2004 by Bob Price and opened to the public in 2005. It’s quickly become one of the top attractions in Puerto Vallarta and for good reason. It’s a healthy, fun and educational day trip, hiking, enjoying nature and breathing fresh air among trees, flowers, cacti, birds, insects and more, is an uplifting experience, even better when the place is well-tended, with beautiful surroundings and interesting places to visit on the grounds, nice bridges, the Orchid Conservatory (they exhibit over 300 of the 1000 plus native Mexican orchid species), the Chapel (can be rented for events), the Horcones River where you can swim in the freshwater pools or climb the boulders and on and on.
Vallarta Botanical Garden is registered with the Botanic Gardens Conservation International in Surrey, England, is a member of the Asociación Mexicana de Orquideología, and is a non-profit institution. The botanical garden is also a bird reserve with the collaboration of ornithologists and is also a member of international bird conservation agencies.
The Vallarta Botanical Gardens offers a series of jungle hikes and paths you can enjoy through different biomes (many trees and plants have small signs stating name and species), including the Tropical Dry Forest, which is the natural surroundings in the jungles of PV.
There’s the Holstein Orchid and Vanilla Conservatory, the Aquatic Plants pond by the Visitor Center, the Galeana Family Cactus Garden, swinging bridge, the Emerald Pools swimming area, the Tree Fern Grotto, the Native Mexican Orchid Conservatory (orchid conservation and propagation are one of VBG’s main goals), Tropical Fruit Orchard, you’ll find collections of oaks, agaves, wild palms and bromeliads and much more.
You can also visit The Bridge of Dreams or the Chapel of Our Lady of the Garden, a beautiful and calming part of the garden, with lovely paths and relaxing design. #travel #travelvlog
