Description

Private park of the residential residence of Palazzo Pitti , the Boboli Gardens connects the famous palace of Florence with Forte Belvedere . An excellent example of an Italian garden , 45,000 square meters wide, the park houses statues, various residences and museums, and has an architectural-landscape structure that makes it unique in the world. The garden develops in fact on two main axes , cut by transversal avenues: the first axis, starting from Palazzo Pitti, climbs rapidly on the hill through a deep horseshoe-shaped amphitheater ; the second axis is the well-known Viottolone flanked by two long rows of cypressesinterspersed with statues. The garden also includes the Silver Museum , the Costume Gallery and the Porcelain Museum.
