Conservatory of Flowers

We stopped by this place while visiting and absolutely loved it. My spouse and I like to visit local conservatories because it gives us some insight into local plants and this place did not disappoint. The cost is very affordable for adults when we went ($11/person) so it was an affordable way to spend an hour or two.

The Conservatory of Flowers in Golden Gate Park is absolutely stunning! It was such a treat to walk from building to building, each one beautifully designed and showcasing unique floral displays. The layout and architecture are just as captivating as the plants themselves. It took me about 45 minutes to an hour to go through the conservatory, and every moment was worth it. A serene and inspiring experience—I highly recommend it!

Really beautiful and a huge array of plants to see. Not a bad price ($14/person) for what you see here. We spent maybe an hour walking through the place twice because we kept noticing more and more plants each time. There is also a small plant shop too. Bathrooms are outside of the building. We went on black Friday and it was a little busy, but not too bad.

The Conservatory of Flowers is an absolute gem nestled in Golden Gate Park. From the moment you step inside, you're surrounded by stunning architecture and lush tropical plants that make for a truly magical experience. Whether you’re a plant enthusiast or just visiting for the beauty, this place is a must-see. The different rooms each have their own unique atmosphere—from water lilies to exotic ferns, the variety is breathtaking. As a photographer, I can say it’s one of the best spots for a photoshoot. The natural light filters through the glass panels in such a soft, flattering way, making every photo feel vibrant and alive. Plus, the combination of the stunning flora and the vintage elegance of the structure makes for a dream backdrop. I’ve had the opportunity to capture some incredible moments here—whether it's for an engagement session or portraits, the Conservatory always delivers. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the experience is nothing short of enchanting. Whether you’re taking a stroll through its greenhouses or hosting a special event, the Conservatory of Flowers offers a little slice of paradise in the heart of San Francisco. Highly recommend!

This place is a treasure trove of colors. Gorgeous and vibrant plantlife are sustained beautifully here. If you ever want to escape the smog and the everyday inner-city rush the Conservatory of Flowers is the relaxing day outting you have been looking for. Dont forget to check out the koi fish. These sociable creatures love showing off.

If you have a membership to a botanical type garden in your city, such as the Dallas Arboretum, check to see what other parks and gardens you can get into, like the Conservatory of Flowers! It is such a beautiful building, and hosts so many tropical plants.

We got lucky and came here on a day that was free admission. That said, we saw the normal admission prices as we were entering, and if you’re a non-resident… I just don’t think the visit is worth it. It is a beautiful place. But it’s relatively small and was pretty crowded when we visited.

Come on weekdays and much nicer experiences without the crowds. So many unique flowers.
