The old botanical park consists of an upper and lower park, connected by an underground passage. You can buy a ticket either to both sides for 350 rubles, or only to the small lower one. The upper area is large and interesting. There are many beautiful old park buildings, a suspension bridge and a replica of a dolmen, a pen with ostriches and peacocks, a parrot, an artificial low waterfall with a cave, and a sakura garden. Lots of flower beds with tulips. A pleasant place for leisurely walks. The lower park is smaller in area, with lakes in which swans, ducks and pelicans swim. There is a small bamboo grove. You can get around in 15-20 minutes of leisurely pace. Measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19: thermometry at the entrance, the requirement to maintain social distance, wear a mask.
