Surround yourself by hundreds of fluttering butterflies in the Butterfly Pavilion. Admire the tropical fish in the monumental Aquarium. Stroll through the historic city park with its ancient trees and many plants. Taste the atmosphere in café-restaurant De Plantage. Or set up a chair by the fountain on Artisplein.

From mulberry to giant sequoia
Since June 2020, ARTIS is officially a botanical garden. ARTIS has received this designation because of the special tree collection and the educational stories and activities surrounding the entire fauna in the park. The status is a recognition of the green heritage of the ARTIS Park. The ARTIS Park is home to more than 700 trees of over 200 different species, which have Arboretum status. But shrubs, annuals and perennials, thousands of flower bulbs and even house plants can be found in the park.
