| | | | | | Amsterdam's Hortus (botanical garden) has from way back been known as 'the town's pride and joy' - an oasis of peace and beauty at the very centre of the bustling city. The garden is almost 400 years old. Established in 1638 as a herb garden for Amsterdam's doctors and pharmacists, the Hortus has over the centuries evolved into a live museum with a unique range of plants from all continents. Behind the garden's monumental entrance, at the boundary of the city centre and the Plantagebuurt district, are some six thousand different plant varieties. |
