[1] Botanical Garden VILAR has the status of a specially protected natural area of federal significance.

Proceeding from the botanical-geographical principle, several departments were organized in the garden: 1) the Far East, 2) Eastern and Western Siberia, 3) Central Asia, 4) the Crimea and the Caucasus, 5) the European part of the USSR.

Small plots were allocated for the flora of Western Europe, overseas Asia and North America.

In the botanical garden, a school was established to grow seedlings and fields for the introduction of new plant species.

In the 1970s, in the Botanic Stream (tributary of the Bitza River) flowing through the territory of the garden, three ponds were constructed, in two of which fish were launched.
