Nature in the city centre
Botanic garden "The apothecaries' garden"
Why locals love it
This is the oldest botanic garden in Russia, founded by Peter the Great to grow medicinal herbs. Now it's a botanic garden of Moscow State University. Very cosy, easy-to-find and always interesting for nature lovers. During spring-summer-fall season there is always something to see - it won't be the same in a week or two!
