Must do: National Botanical Gardens
Pietermaritzburg is justifiably known as the City of Flowers, with private gardens and public parks aglow with lush foliage and seasonal blooms, such as bougainvilleas and azaleas.

The National Botanical Gardens, one of eight in the country, is situated on an ancient floodplain at the foot of a mist belt. The garden primarily conserves and propagates rare and endangered indigenous plant species, as well as plants from the east coast grassland.

Guided tours of the National Botanical Garden, which range from an informative walk through the Muthi garden to an inspection of the spider species, can be arranged.
