Your entry to the Vallarta Botanical Garden is a ticket to natural adventure. Wild discovery and floral fascination awaits in the Garden’s plant houses and throughout its forest preserve hiking trails. You may also choose to swim in the “Los Horcones" tropical mountain river at the Garden (bring swimwear), dine in the magnificent Hacienda de Oro Restaurant, or sit back and observe the abundance of birds and butterflies that call this natural sanctuary home. Nearly every day brings something new into bloom at the Garden from such well known delightful Mexican plants as vanilla and chocolate to stunning local endemic trees, bromeliads, and orchids—many of which do not yet grow in any other public garden! The Vallarta Botanical Garden is the place where Mexican plants meet the imagination, so don't miss a visit to this place.
