📷 Amazing Botanical Garden

Today we will go to the botanical garden of the city of Krasnodar, which occupies a huge area of ​​about 40 hectares of land. The project of this garden was developed by the employees of the Agrarian University under the guidance of Professor I.S. Kosenko, and today he bears his name. They opened the botanical garden in 1959, and the source material was collected all over Russia and some foreign countries. In this picturesque corner of nature you will not notice how day will pass, birds sing, fragrant scents around, peacocks scream, squirrels gnaw, rest is a pleasure.

And what around the picturesque nature. In the park grow about 1200 species of trees and shrubs and more than 500 species of wild-growing and herbaceous plants. And begin our tour of the park from the main entrance, there is a monument to the founder of the botanical garden and the scheme of the park is located.

From here we head to one of the most beautiful avenues with majestic beeches, chestnuts and huge oaks.

We came here at about 12 o'clock, the sun was very bright and the variety of colors was amazing. I have never seen such trees and shrubs before. Bad only, that nowhere there were tablets, many plants have not yet learned how they are called.

Alley in the park I counted more than 12 and all are so different: there are pine, fir, maple and linden, many beautiful birches, willow trees, these are only those that I determined.

On many trees nesting birdhouses, some grow huge chagi, and that was amazing - in the sun they smoked, as if smoking. Chaga - a kind of mushrooms of the genus Inonotus, they are considered very useful.

There were a lot of mulberry trees in the park, the kids were overeaten, everyone was gathering mulberry and immediately sent to the mouth. I also love him, and jam made from it is very tasty. And how many birds were around, everyone was singing and singing. It's very funny to watch them.

On such glades you can spread a blanket and sunbathe all day. And you do not even need to go anywhere. Camping is a grace.

And what beautiful peacocks are here, they danced and cried, and opened their miracle-tails, attracted our attention in every way.

Never so many peacocks have seen at once, there are about 7 of them, and maybe I did not notice anyone. Above them is the truth, circling the omnipresent pigeons, and feeding on the remnants of their treats, but the pleasure of such a spectacle is inexpressible.

Many pairs of newlyweds come to the botanical garden to make vivid photographs. Such huge trees you will not find on the streets of the city in such a variety.

In the very center of the park there is a huge meadow, before it was paired with pony kids, but I did not see a pony, but the spectacle impressed me. There were a lot of different birds here, I had never met them anywhere before, whom I did not see here: both a stiletto and a bald-coot. I would never know them, if not for one uncle, probably an ornithologist, also photographed them. But, I did not manage to take a picture of them, they left right away.
