Le Residenze a Firenze > FLORENCE GARDENS > Accessible gardens in Florence

Florence, the city of hidden gardens. Artistic, centuries-old, and beautiful.

They are hidden behind high walls, wrought iron gates, and provide refreshment to the millions of Florentines and tourists who decide to take a moment of rest.

While many gardens are accessible, some are developed in height to stand out over Florence.

Here we mention two of the most beautiful gardens in Florence that, despite the barriers, have equipped themselves to make the enjoyment possible for all visitors.

  • Giardino di Boboli

    The first Italian-style garden, which served as an example for many European courts. It was created by the architect Niccolò Tribolo on commission from the Medici family.
