Botanical garden. Part one


В 1706 году здесь, на тогдашней северной окраине Москвы, за Сухаревой башней, по указу Петра I был заложен аптекарский огород для выращивания лекарственных растений. К началу XIX века здесь, как и во многих других медицинских садах Европы, были собраны сотни видов растений. 

Теперь Аптекарский огород - один из ботанических садов, принадлежащих МГУ. Растения больше не используют для производства лекарств, и его территория стала излюбленным местом для прогулок - здесь проводят фестивали цветов и экскурсии по оранжереям с тропическими растениями, создают узоры на цветочных клумбах... Среди деревьев, достающих до неба, и аромата цветущей сирени вокруг извилистых дорожек можно совершенно забыть о времени. 


Apothecary Garden was founded in 1706 on what was then the northern outskirts of Moscow by the decree of Peter I for growing medicinal plants. By the beginning of XIX century here as in many other gardens in Europe were collected hundreds of plant species.

Now Apothecary Garden is one of the botanical gardens owned by MSU. Plants are no longer used for the production of medicaments and its territory became a lovely place for walks. There are held flower festivals and tours around greenhouses with tropical plants, and florists create patterns of wonderful flower on flower beds ... Among the trees reaching  the sky and the scent of lilac blossoms you could totally forget about the time.

Mid-May is the time of flowering lilac - white, tea coloured and deep-purple.


Середина мая - время цветения сирени. Белой, чайной и махровой, насыщенно-сиреневой.





Адрес Аптекарского огорода: проспект Мира, дом 26, строение 1. Найти его очень просто, он находится буквально в 5 минутах ходьбы от метро Проспект Мира (Кольцевая)

Apothecary garden is located in Moscow, Prospect Mira, 26, building 1. You will find it easily, it is just a 5-minute walk from the Prospekt Mira metro station.
