(Translated by Google) I'm going to visit it, I went as a child, but instead of criticizing, we should help. The botanical garden has recovered thanks to the help and promotion of a group that cares about the place. (Original) Voy a visitarlo iba de niña , pero debemos en vez de criticar ayudar , el jardín botánico e ha recuperado por la ayuda y promoción de un grupo que se preocupo por el lugar.
