The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens or Alameda Gardens are a botanical garden in Gibraltar, spanning around 6 hectares (15 acres).
The gardens were founded in 1816 by Governor of Gibraltar General George Don in order to provide a recreational area for the Garrison at the time. Serving that purpose for many years, the gardens fell into disrepair in the 1970s until the Gibraltar Botanic Gardens project, funded by a firm of environmental consultants and managers, Wildlife (Gibraltar) Limited, came about in 1991.

The place for recreation
The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens is, together with the Rock, one of the best places for a peaceful stroll. Make sure not to miss the open air theatre when visiting! more
