The exquisite and eclectic gardens of Villa Stibbert (via Federico Stibbert 26) are well worth an afternoon spent wandering and relaxing, as is its neighbouring
Villa Fabbricotti (via Vittorio Emanuele II) and Giardino Baden Powell. These three connecting parks have a secret garden feel as you stroll about, not quite sure what you’ll come across next. Whether it’s the Egyptian temple, with its little turtle families contentedly wading in the artificial pond, or the impressive villas atop carefully curated gardens, this is a place you’ll return to again and again. Picnic benches are scattered about with a café onsite if you fancy purchasing rather than packing your own.
