Walk and Picnic in the Hidden Parks of Florence

In evidenza

Itinerario

1. 1

   The large English park, houses some curious monuments, fountains and sculptures. It is an intricate series of paths that go up and down in the bush, with furniture and angles of rest and view. The tall stem vegetation is represented by plants such as pines, oaks, horse chestnuts, lindens, on which beautiful cypresses are standing out some of which probably date back to before the restoration of Stibbert.

   The romantic setting is the pond, on whose banks there is a small temple in neo-Egyptian style, while the driveway decorated with a row of sculptures and classical busts is a typical element of the pre-existing Italian garden.

   The park is developed along the longitudinal axis that connects the entrance square on via Vittorio Emanuele II and the top of the slope dominated by the villa Fabbricotti, through the alternation of stepped ramps and terraces, at the end of which develops the large flat garden with lawn covering that surrounds the villa. From the entrance you can reach the top of the slope also along a wide winding road that, intersecting in two points the ramps, continues on the left of the villa to reconnect with the western terrace overlooking the belvedere.

   The Garden of Horticulture is a garden in Florence born in the middle of 800.

   In 1854, when the practice of gardening became widespread, the Accademia dei Georgofili founded the Società Toscana di Orticoltura. From here the need for an experimental garden was born, which took place in 1859, when the Society was granted a plot of land owned by the Marquis Ludovico Ginori
