The University of Alberta Botanical Garden (formerly the Devonian Botanic Garden) has been attracting visitors and making the area greener since 1959. With multiple gardens and a modern architectural flare, the garden is a prime location for first-time visitors to the Edmonton area who want a taste of natural beauty. The garden offers guided tram and walking tours of the different collections. Kerry Mulholland, communications and marketing co-ordinator for the garden recommends a few must –see areas including the new Aga Khan Garden, a stunning four-hectare (11-acre) Mughal-inspired garden; the serene Kurimoto Japanese Garden; and the indoor showhouses—especially the Tropical Plant and Butterfly House.
