Boboli Gardens

Directly behind the Pitti Palace lies the regal splendour of the Boboli Gardens, created in the 16th century by the powerful Medici family and later imitated by courts across Europe. Today, it remains one of Italy’s most breathtaking gardens. Wander along tree-lined avenues, past ancient and Renaissance statues, grottos, and fountains that showcase centuries of artistry. Among its highlights is the 18th-century Kaffehaus, a rare example of Rococo architecture in Tuscany, perched within a magnificent terraced area.
