Jardim Botânico (English: Botanical Garden) is a wealthy residential neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, located north of Ipanema and Leblon, just across Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas and east of Gávea.

The residents are generally upper-middle to upper-class and do not live near a favela,[disputed – discuss] which is rare in the city.

It is home to many Brazilian celebrities and the headquarters of the nationwide television network, Rede Globo.

One of Rio de Janeiro's most famous carnival blocs parades annually through the streets of Jardim Botanico.

The bloc calls itself "Suvaco do Cristo", which translates to "Armpit of the Christ" because Jardim Botânico lies underneath the right armpit of Rio de Janeiro's most prominent landmark, Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer) statue.
