Green spaces in Tomsk(Types of gardens)



Hello, friends!
We would like to tell you about diffrent kinds of green spaces and gardens in Tomsk.There are 4 types of gardens:
First type includes city-owned gardens.
Lagerny garden(foto left) is situated on the bank of the river Tom. It looks like forest with walking pathes. In the middle of this park the Monument to Unknown Soldier is situated.


City-garden includes attractions for children, walking place, alleys with wonderful trees. In this park there are many cafes.

Second type includes orangerees
Botanical garden.(fotos below text)It is one of the most famous in Russia. This garden is very beautiful. Unfortunately, it’s close now, you can get there only with excursion.


Third type includes green streets.
Tomsk had a birthday two years ago, because of this date Duma (parliament) decided to plant a lot of trees along many streets.

Fourth type includes private gardens. (fotos below text)
This is the most spread type of gardens in Russia. Private garden is small part of the ground, where people usually grow trees, fruits and vegetables.

  • Hello, Juana!
    It's nice to read your compliments to our carrots!
    Sometimes we have problems with weather. But we don't afraid of snowing and cold.
    Most of us like vegetables, but Anastasia Lazareva and July hate them.
    We are going to grow trees in spring.

  • Hello, Ana!
    On privat gardens people begin workings in spring. Most of working are done in sommer and it's finished in autumn.
    In our privat gardens we work and in city-owned gardens we have a rest.
