Jardim Botânico (English: Botanical Garden) is a residential neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, located north of Ipanema and Leblon, just across Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitasand east of Gávea. Jardim Botânico lies in the affluent "Zona Sul" (South Zone) of Rio de Janeiro.
The district got its name as it grew around the city's world-famous Botanical Garden. The residents are generally upper-middle to upper class and do not live near a favela, which is rare in the city. It differs from most of Rio's neighbourhoods due to the large number of large detached houses, again not that common in the densely populated south zone. It is home to many Brazilian celebrities and the headquarters of the nation-wide television network, Rede Globo. Many of Rede Globo's studios are in the neighborhood.
The main road in the borough is the Rua Jardim Botanico (Jardim Botanico Street). The neighborhood leads to Rio de Janeiro's large Tijuca Forest, using a road that winds up through the mountainous forest.
