    The botanic gardens are a documented collection of plants with the first consideration to conservation and preservation. It was set up in 1817 by a wealthy local botanist. Today they are owned by the city. The gardens are free to enter and open from 7am to dusk every day. You can book onto guided tours if you want to know more.

      The garden with its tropical houses is absolutely worth a visit
