The Gibraltar Botanic Gardens was founded in 1816 by General George Don, the Governor of Gibraltar. It was formerly known as Alameda Gardens. It is a place that the people of Gibraltar go to relax. The gardens fell into disrepair in the 1970's. A restoration project was undertaken in the early 1990's, and it was turned into a botanic garden.
