Ningbo Botanical Gardens
Ningbo Botanical Gardens is located in Zhenhai district. It can be accessed via local buses or by taxi. From Jiangbei to the gardens costs around 25RMB. Entry into the gardens is 30-60RMB depending on current events or time of year. Generally, I’ve always paid 30RMB.
Once inside the garden you can veer off to the right where you will find the maze of fresh flowers lay out in a winding path style. Here there are benches to sit or small grass areas to enjoy.
Further inside the gardens, you can find an old train sat on the unused tracks ready to sit inside and eat. Many families go inside here for lunch or a break from the sun.
As you continue into the park, you can find 2 small shops which serve food and drink, as well as a pond with water fountain. Follow the gardens around and explore the different areas.
It’s worth a good few hours here.

May Day Outing: The peonies are blooming at Ningbo Botanical Garden
May Day Outing: The peonies are blooming at Ningbo Botanical Garden.
I was planning to go to Luoyang to see the peonies, and I was a bit tempted, but I felt that it would be too rushed and tiring, so I gave up the idea.
Looking at the route, I found that I could first see the peonies and then rush to see the peonies.

The tulips in this oil painting are so beautiful at Ningbo Botanical Garden
Enter from Gate 3, go straight and then turn left (along the river) for a few minutes, and you will see it. The entire large lawn on the side of the windmill is full of them, even more spectacular than the cherry and begonia garden. The palette-like tulips are really too beautiful!
Opposite the windmill road is the tulips along the small river, which are also mixed colors. These days they are blooming just right, everyone hurry up and go to enjoy the flowers.
Parking: Navigate to Parking Lot 3, the tulips are close, about a 10-minute walk away

#mynovgetaway Ningbo Botanical Garden aka 植物园 is a landmark not to be missed when visiting Ningbo, Zhejiang. It is interested year round and a real haven of peace and tranquility. I really liked the thematic gardens such as the rose Garden or the traditional houses by the lake.

Everyone has been to many botanical gardens, but the Ningbo Botanical Garden is not the same as the general botanical garden. There are small trains here. The park enjoys the four seasons and the "old memory, new ideas" as the concept, and creates a four-season plant landscape experience zone with the theme of spring, summer, autumn and winter in the spring, summer, autumn and winter. The setting of the special garden is divided into spring flower plant area (such as Mulan Spring Garden, Sakura Haitang Garden, Rose Garden, etc.), summer landscape plant area (such as water forest), autumn plant area (such as Maple Autumn Garden, Osmanthus Ziwei Garden). And winter landscape plant areas (such as pine cypress garden, bamboo garden, Meiyuan, Shishu Garden, etc.), as well as plant evolution roads, oriental grass gardens, vine gardens and other special parks.

Ningbo Botanical Garden is large in size and can be played for one day. Spring rewards rapeseed flowers in summer, autumn sunflowers in the autumn, and the botanical gardens are full of flowers all year round. As long as the weather is good, you can go shopping at any time. Compared to the forest park in Cixi, the garden lakes, flowers and trees, and small train bicycles are a higher grade. In late March, it is a good time to enjoy the flowers. There are a lot of cherry blossoms here. There are also large tulip and rapeseed, as well as white and other colors of rape. Lanyuan is holding a rhododendron exhibition. There are also flowers such as sea bream and magnolia. Ningbo Botanical Garden covers an area of 180 hectares in Beihuan East Road, Zhenhai District, Ningbo. It opened in September last year. During the trial operation, the preferential ticket is 20 yuan, which is not expensive. The traffic is convenient, and there are direct buses from 399 and 39 in Ningbo.

The Ningbo Botanical Garden covers a very large area. In April, the cherry blossoms on both sides of the Sakura Avenue are particularly beautiful, and then there are tulips and rose roses. The scenery of the four seasons is different. Spring rewards rapeseed flowers in summer, autumn sunflowers in the autumn, and the botanical gardens are full of flowers all year round. As long as the weather is good, you can go shopping at any time. There are also small trains in the park that can be used. It is a paradise for young children. The locomotive is suitable for literary youth, and the windmill is suitable for lovers of 520. In addition, there are many varieties of flowers in the botanical garden, which can increase a lot of knowledge. The entrance fee to the botanical garden is also very cheap, and it is a romantic place that is very suitable for taking pictures.
