Liaqat Botanical Garden

Peshawar, Pakistan, Pakistan

---

Liaqat Botanical Garden, also known as Liaqat Ali Botanic Garden, is a botanical garden located in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, listed among Pakistan's botanical gardens.

The garden is one of several smaller-scale conservation projects in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, created through the efforts of retired botany professor Abdur Rashid from the University of Peshawar, who has volunteered his expertise and time over many years to support civil society and individuals in conservation efforts.

Professor Rashid completed doctoral studies in biodiversity in Japan in the early 1980s and established Liaqat Botanical Garden along with other projects like the Qur'anic Garden in Peshawar and Fall Color Garden in Chitral as part of his work to reverse deforestation and promote reforestation in the region. The garden serves as a conservation project focused on plant biodiversity preservation, though specific details about its size, plant species count, or establishment date are not widely documented in available sources.

Located in Peshawar District, the garden has a low public rating of 1.7 with no reviews yet, suggesting it may be a smaller, less-visited facility compared to Pakistan's major botanical gardens. The garden's name honors Liaqat Ali, likely referring to an important figure in Pakistan's history or local botanical conservation.
