Jeevanjee Gardens

Pause beneath mature trees in a five-acre CBD garden donated to Nairobi by Alibhai Mulla Jeevanjee in 1906.

What to expect

Jeevanjee Gardens is a small public green space at the north end of Nairobi’s CBD, with benches and sculptures among the planted paths. A JICA city-planning report records the five-acre park’s 1906 donation and its role as a recreation space for people in the centre. The Nairobi County tracker, updated 16 October 2026, lists a garden revitalization project as delayed and 52% complete; it does not say whether work currently affects the paths or gates.

Entry and costs

Check access. The County’s latest project tracker does not confirm whether the garden is fully open during the delayed revitalization work or state a current general entry fee. Confirm gate access with Nairobi City County before travelling; event use and nearby purchases are separate.

Visitor notes

Visit Nairobi’s park page does not publish a regular opening schedule or current access details. Check the County’s latest notice before setting out. The local photo shows a sandy path and seating beneath the garden’s trees.

Opening hours

Date-specific hours are not available for this place. Check the official page for the day you plan to visit.
