Villa d'Este is an extraordinary and sophisticated example of Renaissance culture. For its ground-breaking design and the layout of the architectural elements, it represents a unique example of the Italian garden style of the sixteenth century. Villa d'Este, one of the first gardens of wonders, served as a model and had a decisive influence on the development of gardens in Europe. The complex shape covers an area of about 12 acres, and it is slightly irregular because the architect had to use some parts of the pre-existing monastic building. The garden of Villa d'Este extends along steep slopes descending from the palace to a flat terrace. Among the others, the garden of fountains is a masterpiece of hydraulic engineering, both for the general conception of the system and for the complexity of the distribution system and the its water features.
