The 18 best parks and gardens in Puebla

All the family loved this place! So cool how close you can get to the animals 😂 so many nice places to take pics. And the restrooms are very clean. Lots of different places to eat. Highly recommend if you are visiting puebla with the kids!!

I was impressed! My first Safari in life! It was amazing to see different animals so close 🐘 Such a beautiful family experience! Highly recommend 🌟 The only problem can be lots of visitors, so 🚗 cars drive very slowly and under the sun 🌞 it can be a tricky time with kids in a car! So I would choose time to enter wisely. Maybe not weekends if you have opportunity! Area with Lions is just Breathtaking! 🧡🦁

A super cool drive thru zoo. After you drive thru all the way, there is a walking experience where u get to see even more animals and insects. Such a cool experience for the kids. The animals looked very healthy and well taken care of. Such a delightful place, will come back!

Amazing, better than expected. The animals seem to be better treated that in most zoos and this haves a nice concept that makes it different than a normal zoo. Loved the Cows with gigantic horns

Such a phenomenal experience! I 10/10 recommend if you’re visiting to make this place a stop!

One of the best experiences ever. Must do it while near puebla

Go on a Monday, bring your own car and take as much time as you need driving through to see the animals. Staff are accommodating and understanding, not strict about poking your head out of sunroofs.

The Zócalo in Puebla is truly the heart of the city and a must-visit destination for anyone exploring this vibrant colonial city. As one of Mexico’s most beautiful and historic plazas, it offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and lively atmosphere. The square is surrounded by stunning colonial architecture, with colorful buildings and ornate facades that reflect Puebla’s rich heritage. The cathedral, with its impressive baroque design, dominates the skyline and adds to the majestic ambiance of the plaza. During the day, the Zócalo buzzes with activity—locals and tourists alike gather to relax, enjoy street performances, or sip coffee at nearby cafes. At night, the area transforms with beautifully lit buildings, creating a romantic and picturesque setting. The surrounding streets are lined with shops, markets, and restaurants offering delicious local cuisine, including Puebla’s famous mole poblano. It’s a great place to soak in the local culture, do some shopping, or simply people-watch. Overall, the Zócalo in Puebla is a vibrant, historic, and charming place that captures the essence of the city. Whether you’re interested in history, architecture, or just soaking up the lively atmosphere, it’s an experience not to be missed.

Puebla es a historic place and have an amazing cultural history. You can find nice place to eat and buy some gifts.

Fantastic decorations for Dia de Los Muertos all over this Zocalo. I had a great time walking around and taking photos of everything. It was super colorful, very beautiful, and so much fun to be had. The architecture is amazing and the sights and people made my heart sing.

3rd largest city in Mexico and absolutely beautiful!!! Add this to your list if you're visiting Mexico City. Make sure to go to the library and thr church in Centro. We took a tour here and it was excellent. Really enjoyed learning about tye history of the city and the architecture.

This place is amazing. I went for Día de los Muertos and it was such an impressive time there. Everything was amazing. Definitely felt safe even with so many crowds. It was awesome seeing the historic architecture and the preservation of the culture. Saw all types of people from Mexico and around the world. Definitely recommend and I will be going back again!

Alot to see and do here ! Food, stores, walking, browsing,tours, museums, people watch, ZumBa, activities.. something always happening. - Can't fly drones here without a permit

Had a wonderful walk around this area and went inside the church. So beautiful.

Easy entry, nice view. There was a „radio“ in the capsule and the content was a bit annoying because it was just advertising. Some information about Puebla would have been nicer.

It seems new and very well maintained. . it is a very large Ferris wheel .. if I remember right it was 80 pesos a person they had some deluxe style seats for like vip people that were like 800 for 6 people . There was absolutely no one else on it when we went so there was no line and no waiting .. pretty good view .. it goes very very slow takes probably 10 or 15 minutes to go around .. you can see the majority of the city from the top .. I would pay to ride it again for sure.. I don't normally give 5 stars I am fairly conservative with them but this was worth 5 stars I think..

Amazing views! VIP basket has a glass bottom and very comfortable seats. View from the top is amazing, if you can try to catch the sunset! Totally worth visiting!

The view is good. But we went when all the cars were empty and yet they crammed everyone into one cabin... just so they can sell their vip tickets. I can understand this policy during busy times, but not when the wheel is empty. The seller didn't explain this policy when I was in the ticket booth.

Smooth experience, beautiful view of the city, and the ferris wheel isn't super fast, so you can take your pictures and videos but also soak in the view all at the same time. Staff were super nice, and the cost is only 80 pesos!!!

Very nice place, to affordable very fun

If you can go with friends the experience could be better, if you are going alone you're gonna share the cabin with random people.

Wonderful area for tourists and locals with walking trails and historic fort on hilltop

Historical Zone, it's a great park it's huge and clean, one of the best places to get a date or to go in a familiar plan

Nice place to see the volcano 🌋. Very interesting.

Beautiful place, nice and clean. Great place to take pictures and learn some history.

Nice park. Lots of walking paths. Enjoyed exploring the area. Good views of Puebla from the heights.

A great feeling to be in that historic place, there are other museums and the view from there to the city of puebla is beautiful

A very nice park and green area around it. Beautiful view of town from up.

Amazing and beautiful place. 4 stars just because the signs explaining about the places are old and unreadable. Walking around the park is free. You only need to pay if you want to play in the mini golf.

This is a fun park to visit. The miniature landmarks are interesting to see, it's like visiting around the world. Be sure to follow the path past the tennis courts to visit Egypt, Asia and Europe!

Nice place for a walk, there are some playground for kids and the small copies are very good with great details. Also you can play mini golf.

It's a beautiful, tranquil park where you can enjoy miniature monuments from around the world. Kids and adults will enjoy it. Wheelchair accessible too.

Very nice park. Lots of miniature buildings that are very nicely detailed. Also have a nice putt-putt course, as well as basketball and tennis court. Make sure you go over the bridge, because a lot of the models are in another section of the park that is on the other side of the road, but they have a nice pedestrian bridge. The museum of photography was also very nice. Free on Sundays, and had a lot of history of Puebla, in pictures.

Amazingly beautifully constructed and gives everyone an opportunity to rejoice the most famous locations on a smaller scale

Small park but well maintained. With buildings from Puebla, Mexico City, New York, Washington and Berlin.

This is a really nice botanical garden. I visit a lot of botanical gardens when I travel and this compares very well with some of the better gardens that I've seen. Even more impressive is that it is a university garden. It's nicely maintained with good labeling and signage. Signs are all in Spanish which was a challenge for my limited command of the language, but the garden is not intended for English speaking tourists. It's also nice just to get out into nature and away from the traffic and noise of the city. Ridiculously cheap (10 MXP) - if you are interested in the flora of Puebla, don't miss it.

This is a very popular space inside the public university campus. A big garden where you can find all kinds of plants and trees, and some little animals. There's a small lake, with a floating stage for music concerts and other cultural events. A perfect combination of music, nature and arts.

Most spectacular assortment of happy healthy orchids, cactus, trees, that Puerto Vallarta has to offer. Enjoy a delicious meal overlooking the river where you will spot beautiful birds also. Can't miss the gift shop...tremendous Mexican assortment of any souvenir you can think of. A wonderful spot to spend the day.

It's an awesome place to have a good time. Very clean with lots of plants and animals.

It is inside the university and there are a great variety of plants and some are for selling

Nice place to go for a walk with the family

Why is this place closed on the most important days of the week bizzare?

Loved ArboTerra! Easily spent a few hours here immersed in the story. Angie was super sweet and bilingual which was an added bonus. Extra special place for me- the entire crew helped plan my proposal and did it in the most memorable way. Thank you so much!

Beautiful location and we enjoyed the birds and reptiles but this experience is definitely only for children. We went on Monday at 11am and were the only ones in the park. They have actors dressed up and pretending to be characters, they have to act for you even though we were all adults. It was quite awkward even though they did a good job.

It's a nice place, a little overpriced but it make sense since they got so much maintenance and actors to pay. I would only wish they were a bit clearer in the ticket booth that we were getting into an interactive tour with actors that was clearly made for children. We were only adults and, as a kind of introvert person that I am, it felt a bit awkward. Kudos to the actors though, they were great !

Fun experience. We came for the birds. Didn't realize that the tour had a whole adventure theme to it. We had fun and enjoyed seeing the birds and other wildlife. The staff did a great job.

Great experience! For kids and adults of all ages, the mini show and our guided tour were amazing!

The experience was incredible, fantastic, fabulous, all the people were very nice, quite charismatic and cheerful. Thanks 💕

This was my first time there, and I loved it! It is a place to go with or without kids if you love the nature, and family adventures. You will learn and enjoy in every step of the journey.

(Translated by Google) Good place to skate, nothing more than the bowl is already worn out from the inside, they should maintain it, otherwise it is fine, here are some photos of the vans royale 2019. Let's hope there are more events of this type in the future (Original) Buen lugar para patinar nada más que el bowl ya está desgastado de adentro, deberían darle mantenimiento, por lo demás está bien, aquí algunas fotos del vans royale 2019 esperemos haya más eventos de este tipo en el futuro

(Translated by Google) Hello dear friends. This Skate Park is wonderful. There's less to go before it's open to the public. It has pits of different shapes and curvatures to try all kinds of luck. (Original) Hola queridos amigos. Este Skate Park es maravilloso. Ya falta menos para que sea abierto al publico. Tiene fosas de diferentes formas y curvaturas para probar todo tipo de suertes.

(Translated by Google) The park is quite large but it lacks a lot of maintenance, especially in the skatepark area and the bike lane. In the skatepark part, signs are needed to prevent children from playing in those areas. It is a specific skate area, not for children. children to play, this way they would avoid many accidents and people using the areas to slide as benches, also they will steal your things, be careful with your belongings. The park does not allow dogs and charges $16 parking for motorcycles and cars, the bathroom has already gone up to $6 for a while (which by the way, many times there is no water, paper, much less soap 😃) and the things they sell inside are super expensive (and if you buy, try to bring change). (Original) El parque es bastante grande pero le falta muchísimo mantenimiento, sobre todo en la zona skatepark y la ciclovía, en la parte de skatepark hacen falta señalamientos para evitar que los niños jueguen en esas áreas, es una zona específica de skate, no para que los niños jueguen, de esta manera evitarían muchos accidentes y que las personas usen de bancas las zonas para deslizarse, además se roban tus cosas, tengan cuidado con sus pertenencias. El parque no admite perros y cobra estacionamiento de $16 para motos y coches, el baño ya subió a $6 desde hace un tiempo (que por cierto muchas veces no hay agua, papel y mucho menos jabón 😃) y las cosas que venden dentro estan súper caras (y si compran procuren llevar cambio).

(Translated by Google) The Skatepark is really spacious, it is divided into sections, I went with my skates and the floor seemed very smooth to me, what I also liked is that you can find shade from the trees very easily. (Original) El Skatepark es realmente espacioso, se divide en secciones, yo fui con mis patines y el piso me pareció muy liso, también lo que me gustó es que puedes encontrar sombra de los árboles muy facil

(Translated by Google) Very cool skating classes (Original) Muy padre las clases de patinaje

(Translated by Google) Well, I'm not going yet, but it looks very good, I'm going to do them a favor when I go and take real photos... those cool photos of the place that they have uploaded, not the ones of the people training, but of the facilities... (Original) Pues aun no voy, pero se ve muy bien, favor que les voy a hacer cuando vaya y tome fotos de verdad... ches fotos inchurrientas del lugar que han subido, no las de la gente entrenando, sino de las instalaciones...

(Translated by Google) Good distribution of places to skate, ride a bike, and a good area to take photos (Original) Buena distribución de lugares para patinar , andar en bici , y buena zona para tomar fotos

Very cute little zoo. The animals seem to be well cared for. I wish the leopards had a bigger enclosure. We got to see baby monkeys and baby white tigers. And feeding the birds was fun!

Great little zoo for small kids. Can see lot's of animals up close. Short ride from Puebla.

Second time visiting the park, the staff was very friendly. At first I wasn't sure about going to the park with my seven month old baby but it turned out to be great. We were able to see plenty of animals even though we were a little bummed because very few of the big cats were visible from up close; but we still enjoyed it. The "Museo Viviente" seemed a little scarce of animals this time.

The park is not big, but worth visiting. You can easily spend one hour only feeding animals. Some birds can tell some words like “Hola”. We were really surprised.

They really take care of their animals here. But it is a very small park. Only takes about an hour to walk through. But lots of birds and small monkeys. Their Lions and Tigers looked very healthy and happy. Not very many big animals though, like elephants and giraffes But the few animals they have are very happy and healthy. Cages were very clean.

Very clean , Many species , Manu Many animals, wild and entertaining Even educative place

Nice place to spend a few hours with the family, not really big but it has some diversity and the children can feed the ducks and other small animals...

Nice little place to see beautiful plants. You can buy plants. They have a recycling center, a small restaurant, a gift shop and a store where they sell natural beauty products.

The food is great, the service not so much. It's quite slow to get your order taken, and then to get the food, and then the bill. The gardens themselves are very nice though: well-maintained, nicely laid out, and full of pleasant sights and smells.

A beautiful little oasis! With so much to look at and learn about what can grow in a city like Puebla. Totally free! And also, what about the wonderful soaps and shampoo, wow.

Breakfast has become too expensive for what it's offered. Some dishes are tasteless and others salty. When say expensive it's because of the poor variety and simplicity. On the other hand you have to pay for the parking because that area is not safe so your car is exposed to any damages or robbery. this place has decreased shame on it because the place is not bad

A beautiful garden full of different edible and medicinal plants. The guided tours are very informative, and the cafe has some lovely dishes made with their produce (try the lemon verbena pie if you can!). Our favourite was the hummingbird garden and observation room, where you can see up to 10 different species of hummingbird!

It's a bit out of the way from everything. Which is both good and bad. Bad cuz it's kind of inconvenient. Good cuz it's calm, peaceful, and quiet. It's a bit if a hidden gem in Cholula. The garden was quite beautiful with lots of fresh herbs and plants for you to see and smell. A real quaint place!

Enjoy a break from the hustle and bustle in this lovely, tranquil place by kicking off your shoes and laying on the grass to watch the birds and butterflies! A bit of a walk from Cholula central, but worth it.

A very beautiful, amazing view and ambience. The christmas spirit and the background views make it (the magic town) literaly.

Is a high tourist destination, always busy,, but more on the weekends but needs major remodel ,and unified the business and houses look, with more vibrant colors , and turn all downtown in only pedestrians area. At least on the weekends

Small plaza in Cholula's zócalo where your can have a beer or coffee at one of the several coffee/ bar restaurants.

Great park in the middle of the town square. There are no bathrooms in the park but there one right across the way for a small fee (very clean). Our 2.5 yr old had a great time playing on the colorful playground pieces!

A place full of history, great food and relaxing entertainment. You can buy local foods and drinks, handmade products, culinary delicacies such as grasshoppers (chapulines) wich are great in quesadillas, by the way. There's also souvenirs and handicrafts, from clothing to kitchenware. Make sure to visit the restaurants, specially the "Enamorada" , ask about the history of the restaurant and the movie 🎥. You can also buy some chips (near the BBVA bank) wich are kettle made and enjoy them with some chocolate foam inside the park.

During excavation they found more archaeological, artifacts and structures below the Mexico City zocalo.

In beautiful city of puebla, at cholula center, at a little height but provides a great view of puebla city and the famous volcanoes.

Beautiful park, theres alot of things to do. Perfect place to bring your family. In walking distance from the ferris wheel, and nice malls.

They have ponds, ducks to feed, even native birds! There's a restaurant and a Café, also there's a running track and a football field. It's quite a big place, you can even cook barbecue if you want. Just try to bring an umbrella in case it rains.

Wonderful place for jogging 🏃‍♂️ and daily exercise. Also a nice family park on weekends with kids playing places. Football and basketball grounds

Nice place for exercise, walk, run, bicycle you name it. Beautiful and relaxing.

I like this one because you can start to run or cycle and it connects to the much larger Parque Lineal and Eco-Parque Metropolitano, so you can do a long circuit (about 15km a lap). What I dislike is that there are a lot of "coaches" that give their "classes" (without any valid accreditation, of course, they are just people that exercise and think that's enough to teach) and they use large speakers and make a lot of noise, ruining everyone else's stay. The running track is barely OK, a mile and a half, the one at Parque Ecológico is much better. Basketball court, well, it's just the one.

Nice large clean park with some beautiful wildlife. Plenty of things to see and do.

Great spot for working out... 400m track, 1 km and 1 mile trail, lakes worth ducks, mini golf, basketball court, different sports like box, yoga, aerobics and runners clubs.

Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience at this park during my visit to Puebla. As a tourist from New Zealand who doesn’t speak Spanish, I found it very difficult to enjoy the playground due to a security staff member who seemed to follow me around and yell at me in Spanish, despite my repeated attempts to communicate that I didn’t understand. I paid the entry fee (18 pesos to park) and was there with my child, who was excited to play. However, the security guard’s behavior made the experience extremely uncomfortable. Strangely, there didn’t seem to be any issues when other kids were on the playground, but every time we were there, she became aggressive. It was stressful and completely ruined what should have been a fun outing. I wouldn’t recommend this park to other tourists unless major improvements are made to how visitors are treated. I certainly won’t be returning.

Great park. One thing to note is that finding the entrance- if your driving- may be hard to see. So drive slow it is next to the hospital so it might be miss leading.

Great place for spend a nice family day, the kids love it!

Great place to take kids. Every other park around has been destroyed. There are so many different playgrounds. Good for all ages. It’s a big area.

A good place to share with the family, there are many games for the children to have fun, the place is clean.

This is a great park for kids of various ages. There are many recreational areas with different activities appropriate ages. They even have a station for kids with disabilities! The restrooms are clean and the park appears safe and well managed.

It's a good place to walk and do some exercise. Needs more care on the children playground.

Great history church

Mmmm.

Biutiful

Beautiful place!

(Translated by Google) The garden is full of leisurely atmosphere. It is a great experience to quietly enjoy a leisurely afternoon or take a short rest here. It is also one of the beautiful photo spots. After all, it is a tourist attraction. (Original) 花園充滿者悠閒氣氛 在這裡安靜享受悠閒的下午 或者短暫休息 都是很棒的體驗 這也是美麗的拍照景點之一 畢竟是觀光勝地

(Translated by Google) I always love visiting Paseo de San Francisco, always very clean, very quiet to spend an afternoon with the family, there are some facilities in this place and the only bad thing is that there are some security personnel who are despotic as well as the staff of these same facilities, but the place as such is beautiful (Original) Me encanta visitar siempre paseo de San Francisco, siempre muy limpio, muy tranquilo para pasar una tarde en familia, hay algunas dependencias en este lugar y lo único malo es que hay algunos de seguridad que son déspotas así como el personal de estas mismas dependencias, pero el lugar como tal es bellísimo

(Translated by Google) Nice park. There is a fountain with Talavera tiles and some benches of the same style. You are happy in this place. It's passing. Opposite, on the side of the hotels, are the Almoloya laundries, an interesting place, admirable in 1 minute or more if you have a predilection for these historical sites. Close to a church, although in Puebla everything has a church nearby. (Original) Parque agradable. Hay una fuente con azulejo de talavera y algunas bancas del mismo estilo. Se está contento en este lugar. Es de paso. Enfrente, del lado de los hoteles están los lavaderos de almoloya, un lugar interesante, admirable en 1 minuto o más si se tiene predilección por estos sitios históricos. Cerca de una iglesia, aunque en puebla todo tiene una iglesia cerca.

Beutiful Park, just one thing I saw, drivers park in double line any time !!!

Very nice place to visit

(Translated by Google) Very lonely and they no longer maintain the games...it causes the children to get hurt...or they can no longer be used. They keep it clean. (Original) Muy solitario y ya no le dan mantenimiento a los juegos...ocasiona que se lastimen los niños..o que ya no se puedan usar. Lo mantienen limpio.

(Translated by Google) Very neglected, like almost all the small parks in our town. I sincerely believe that everyone, including businesses, local residents, and surrounding companies, should be aware of this. We should incentivize them with tax discounts or even use the facilities to promote sports culture and support safe recreational spaces. (Original) Muy descuidado, como casi todos los pequeños parques en nuestra puebla. Sinceramente creo que debe de entrar una conciencia en todos como los negocios, la gente del lugar y las empresas alrededor, incentivar con descuentos sobre impuestos o bien poder usar las instalaciones para activar la cultura del deporte y para apoyo de espacios recreativos seguros.

(Translated by Google) A rest stop near one of the busiest streets in the south of the city, where you can find cemitas (I recommend Emilio's, which are in front of Plaza P43), juices, tamales, face masks, even Christmas trees ( when is the time), food trucks are also fashionable at this time. It is also an oasis for bicycle tours. (Original) Una para de descanso en las inmediaciones de una de las calles más concurridas del sur de la ciudad, donde podrás encontrar cemitas (yo recomiendo las de Emilio, que se encuentran frente a Plaza P43), jugos, tamales, cubreboca, hasta árboles navideños (cuando es la época) , también los food truck están siendo moda en estas fechas. Además es un oasis para los recorridos en bicicleta.

(Translated by Google) It's a nice place, I just wish that without the authorities being there, people would be cleaner. The day we went we saw human excrement, papers, cans on the side of the road... In short, a large amount of garbage. Which should not be. Despite the signs that are there. (Original) Es un bonito lugar, solo me gustaría que sin necesidad de que estén las autoridades la gente sea más limpia. El día que fuimos nos tocó ver a la orilla del camino excremento de humano, papeles, latas... En fin una g an cantidad de basura. Que no debe ser. A pesar de los letreros que hay.

(Translated by Google) Calicanto waterfall located in Chila de las Flores Puebla in the third section, it is a little difficult to access in rainy times but it is worth going down to appreciate such a beautiful waterfall (Original) Cascada del calicanto ubicada en Chila de las flores Puebla en la sección tercera, es de un poco difícil acceso en tiempos de lluvias pero vale la pena bajar para apreciar tan bella cascada
