The Birmingham Botanical Gardens in Birmingham, England were designed in 1829 and opened in 1832.
They were designed by J. C. Loudon, a leading garden planner, horticultural journalist and publisher.
The layout is recognisably Loudon's and, as he proposed, there is a conservatory at the top of the site.
There is a lawn on the slope in front of the conservatory and a range of beds and shrubberies round its perimeter. In 1839, Loudon noted that 'the trees and shrubs have thriven in an extraordinary degree'. Overall, the character is that of a Victorian public park - with a bandstand set in 15 acres (6 hectares) of landscaped greenery.
The gardens offer a superb opportunity for recreation and relaxation close to the centre of Birmingham and are open every day of the year, from sunrise to sunset
