Its terraces, shaded walks and greenhouses hold collections from around the world, in the heart of the historic city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A garden of the Enlightenment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The garden was created in 1772, during the reforms of the Marquis of Pombal, to support the teaching of botany and medicine. It was later enlarged and reorganised, and today it forms part of the University of Coimbra&#8217;s World Heritage site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to see<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The formal terraces and the historic layout of the garden.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The tropical greenhouses, with plants from warm and humid climates.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Collections of trees, palms and medicinal plants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The bamboo grove and the quieter corners of the garden.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visiting the garden<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The garden is in the centre of Coimbra, close to the university&#8217;s main buildings.
