A Natural Oasis in the Heart of Montreal

 

Montreal is one of the many active and cacophonous cities around the world. However, a place of escape from that busy life lies at the heart of the city and that is the Botanical Garden.  Seasonally, the Botanical Garden is filled with breathtaking gardens, ranging from a native to a Chinese theme.

Every fall, the Chinese garden highlights its captivating event, which is the Magic of Lanterns.  This latter offers a wonderful sight of colourful lanterns depicting multiple stories from ancient historical facts of China.  

Just a few walks away, the Alpine garden provides rocky paths and a beautiful waterfall for Alpine enthusiasts to enjoy.  

Further ahead, the native garden evokes the environmental lifestyle of the eleven First Nations of Quebec: replicas of the remnants of ancient camps contribute to the old native ambiance.

Finally, it would be an excellent idea to end the tour with the Japanese garden. People can walk through it with a feeling of serene tranquility. Furthermore, people can expect to be transported to a part of Japan’s rural area, with its fish pond and its traditional Japanese house. 

 All in all, the Botanical garden is a natural oasis for those who wish to be “one with nature” in four different types of environment that are surprisingly accessible inside a city.
