The Boboli Gardens, Florence, Italy. Found in the city, which is known as a cradle of culture and rich history, the gardens are a beautiful getaway. Besides the lush and maintained nature, Boboli has a collection of antique sculptures from the 16th-18th centuries, including a few from the Roman times.
The park is one of the oldest Italian gardens, built next to the Pitti Palace – a Medici edifice – in the 16th century. It also features fountains, grottos, garden temples and nymphaions – an ancient-like monuments. And finally the „green architecture“ – the impeccable plants – make the gardens so enticing.
