Many residents consider the Botanical Garden of the University of Puerto Rico as their private reserve, but fortunately it is open to anyone who appreciates the vast beauty of the plant world. Thousands of Puerto Rican couples have had their wedding pictures taken in its Orchid Garden; others have tied the knot at the small chapel in a feathery bamboo forest. This lush 75-acre urban garden can fill your hours with delight. Located in Rio Piedras.
