Butchart Gardens

Victoria, British Columbia

 

[Butchart Gardens, Victoria, BC]In 1904, Jennie Butchart began the task of beautifying the grounds surrounding her home at Tod Inlet, on the Saanich Peninsula. Her husband’s limestone quarry became a sunken garden, now the centrepiece of The Butchart Gardens. The 50 acres of show gardens are meticulously cared for on the estate known as 'Benvenuto,' welcoming countless visitors each year. A variety of garden styles, including Italian and Japanese, appear along the pathways of this glorious floral display.

The gardens are self-guided and visitors are welcome to stay for the day. There is ample free parking, or tour buses and public transit offer daily scheduled service to the gardens. Enjoy the floral surroundings and appetizing menu offered in The Blue Poppy Restaurant or The Dining Room Restaurant. Wheelchair accessible.

Located about 13 miles from downtown Victoria at 800 Benvenuto Dr., (250) 652-5256 (recorded message).

Open daily at 9am. Admission charge.
