South China National Botanical Garden, Yunluo Botanical Garden, and Yunxi Botanical Garden in Guangzhou have introduced a combined ticket that gives visitors access to all three gardens with one pass.
The combined regular ticket price totals 60 yuan, and the discounted joint ticket is available for just 42 yuan. The joint pass remains valid for three months, allowing visitors to tour the three gardens on separate days with a high cost-performance ratio.
South China National Botanical Garden (华南国家植物园)
Covering about 333 hectares, South China National Botanical Garden is China's largest southern subtropical botanical garden. It features more than 30 themed gardens, including the Tropical Rainforest Conservatory, Desert Plant Conservatory, and Alpine Plant Conservatory.
The garden also preserves the nearly primeval secondary forest of Pugang Nature Reserve, where towering ancient trees and dense foliage offer visitors a glimpse into a pristine natural ecosystem.
Yunluo Botanical Garden (云萝植物园)
Located at the southern foot of Baiyun Mountain, Yunluo Botanical Garden covers about 86.6 hectares and comprises eight themed gardens. Its signature attraction, Kapok Walk, is an elevated treetop pathway. From above, visitors can take in sweeping views of colorful flower fields.
Yunxi Botanical Garden (云溪植物园)
Situated at the western foot of Baiyun Mountain, Yunxi Botanical Garden covers around 83 hectares and includes six themed display gardens featuring plants such as water lilies and wild peonies.
The garden is also home to the Huacheng Art Museum, which showcases Guangzhou's thousand-year history as the "City of Flowers," and the Nature Education Center, where visitors can learn about the flora of Lingnan.
How to purchase
Combined tickets are available at the ticket offices of all three gardens and can be used immediately after purchase.
