About Gibraltar Botanic Gardens
The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens or La Alameda Gardens are a professional flowerbed in Gibraltar, spreading over around 6 hectares 15 sections of land. The Rock Hotel lies over the recreation center. In 1816 the greenery enclosures were charged by the British Governor of Gibraltar General George Don. It was his goal that the warriors positioned in the stronghold would have a lovely recreational region to appreciate when on leave, thus occupants could appreciate the air shielded from the outrageous warmth of the sun.
The gardens were revived in 1991 by an outside organization when it was understood that since the 1970s they had fallen into a poor state. After three years the greenery enclosures had the expansion of a zoo: the Alameda Wildlife Conservation Park. In 2001, a bronze figure of James Joyce's Molly Bloom was introduced in the patio nurseries.
General Don had appointed a commemoration of George Augustus Eliott, first Baron Heath field in 1815, which did not emerge in the frame at first asked. A huge statue of General Eliot, cut from the bowsprit of the Spanish ship San Juan Nepomuceno, taken at the Battle of Trafalgar was first created. That statue was taken to the Governor's habitation, where it stands today, being supplanted by the present bronze bust in 1858. This statue is monitored for four eighteenth century howitzers.
