PalmengartenThis spectacular garden in Frankfurt was opened to the public in
1871 and features 50 acres (20 hectares) of flora from rain forest
and mangrove, to savannah and thorn forest vegetation. During the
summer months, families can rent rowboats on the pond, tour the
post-war reconstructed greenhouses, stop and smell the roses in the
rose garden, and on warm summer evenings, head to the bandstand to
enjoy some live music or dancing. Children will love Palmengarten
as there's plenty to see and loads of space to run around and let
off some steam. Guided tours of the gardens are available in
English, French and Spanish. Address: SiesmayerstraÃ?e 63 Website: www.palmengarten.frankfurt.de Email: info.palmengarten@stadt-frankfurt.de Telephone: 069 212 33391 Opening Time: November to January: 9amÂ?4pm; March to October:
