The Botanical Garden of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences is a specialized unit whose main activity is the maintenance of documented scientific collections of living plants for the needs of education and experimental botany. The Botanical Garden of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences maintains the richest public collection of plants in our country. Over 1% of the diversity of higher plants in the world is included in the collections. The beginning of the construction of the institution and the collections was more than a century ago, with the construction of the Royal Botanical Garden in Sofia, located between the current boulevards "Ruski", "Levski" and "Bulgaria". The garden has been moved twice, and has been in its current location at the foot of Vitosha since 1969. Since 1993 it has been an independent specialized unit at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, and since 1998 it has been open to visitors.
