Description

Diergaarde Blijdorp is not only a monumental zoo but, according to its own website, also a recognised botanical garden. Across the park there is a broad collection of trees, shrubs and plants.

History

The botanical collection has grown since the Rotterdam zoo moved to the Blijdorp polder in 1940. The website describes how trees and planting became increasingly important from the 1990s for natural habitats.

Nature & Design

Blijdorp calls its plant collection a green oasis in Rotterdam. It supports animal habitats, biodiversity, education and research. The NVBT also mentions national collections of Primula and Bromelia.

Visitor Information

The address is Blijdorplaan 8 in Rotterdam. A visit is through regular admission to Diergaarde Blijdorp. Check current opening hours, ticket prices and routes on the official website.

Good to Know
