Gardens have always played a fundamental role in Italian culture and landscape, representing the harmonious interaction between man and nature. Italy has been called the “Garden of Europe” thanks to the beauty of its landscapes, the result of a skillful combination of natural elements and human intervention, including some of the most beautiful gardens in Italy, true masterpieces of art and botany.

From north to south, the Italian territory is home to an extraordinary variety of gardens: from the lush parks of Tuscany, such as the Boboli Gardens in Florence, to the lush green spaces of Sicily, influenced by Arab rule that introduced new botanical species. These gardens are fascinating because of their undisputed natural beauty as well as historical and artistic evidence.
