Such a picturesque park that was once the grounds of a palace, which now houses governmental offices. The palace isn't open to visitors, but the gardens welcome all for free. They are exquisite, featuring numerous fountains (the Medici Grotto is a breathtaking sight) and vast grounds. We had the good fortune to see the gardeners beginning to remove plants from the Orangerie, and we were allowed to explore inside. Children were happily sailing boats in the central fountain, while joggers and others were relishing this beautiful location.

This garden is incredibly beautiful and a lovely spot for a leisurely stroll amidst the fountains and picturesque grounds. There are ample chairs and benches for you to sit and soak in the scenery.

A delightful park to explore. It attracts both tourists and locals who appreciate this expansive area. The park is quite large, featuring statues, vibrant flowers, water features, green spaces, and movable chairs for relaxation. I love the concept of being able to sit back and observe life around me. The melodious chirping of birds adds to the ambiance. Entry to the park is free. A fantastic experience!

This park offers a diverse range of activities suitable for everyone. The stunning house at the center sets a lovely backdrop. The gardens remain beautiful year-round, and I recommend visiting during the winter sunshine, particularly around sunset or late afternoon.

I had some spare time before my flight and decided to visit this garden. The weather was perfect, with lots of children sailing boats, sunbathers, readers, artists, and joggers enjoying the large area. The gardens are stunning, well-kept, and clean. Entry is free; I picked up some croissants and enjoyed them by the fountain while people-watching.
