Worth visiting the botanical garden on Rhodes?

[cubrinj]

Is it worth visiting the botanical garden on Rhodes? I think it's called the Sacratous Garden? Or are they two different places. I've heard so much about its stunning landscapes, diverse flora, and tranquil atmosphere, making it a must-see destination for nature lovers. However, I have a couple of questions and I was hoping someone here could share their insights or experiences:

1. Best Time to Visit: What's the best season or time of year to visit the botanical garden to see it in all its glory? Are there any specific months when the garden is particularly vibrant or hosts special flora?
2. Must-See Highlights: For those who have been, what are some must-see highlights within the garden that you'd recommend? Any particular sections or rare plants that I shouldn't miss?
3. Guided Tours: Are there guided tours available? If so, would you recommend taking one to enhance the visit, or is the garden easy to explore independently?

Absolutely, the Botanical Gardens on Rhodes are worth a visit! Located in a lush, serene setting, they offer a beautiful escape from the island’s busier tourist spots. You'll find a diverse collection of plants, including rare Mediterranean species. The well-maintained paths make for a pleasant stroll, and the gardens provide plenty of shaded areas to relax. Additionally, the garden's café offers refreshments, allowing you to enjoy the surroundings at a leisurely pace. I think it's worth visiting!
