Main information
Tuzson János Botanical Garden
This magical garden is located in the neighbourhood of the Sóstó Forest, next to the University of Nyíregyháza. In our greenhouses you can see the plants of tropical areas, orchids, palms, cactuses, banana, curiosities such as carnivorous plants or the Amazon water lily whose beauty is really to be admired.
On open air areas the splendour of herbs, the Japanese garden, the rock garden and the pine-rhododendron provides an unforgettable sight. In our rose garden, you can find 104 of the 200 species of roses of the world, nearly 1800 stems, flowering in the summer.
Much to the joy of children, a unique Hussar Castle Playing Garden, fitting into the environment, can also be found here. Currently it is under renovation but we hope that the small ones can reclaim it as soon as possible. We have contacted Mishi the Squirrel and the exploration of the perpetually bearing tree is in progress!
