10 Gardens in Florence That You Shouldn't Miss

February 4, 2022 Nicolette Lion

Florence is an art historian’s dream. The Galleria dell'Accademia bursts with works by Michelangelo, who is entombed within the frescoed walls of the Basilica di Santa Croce. Budding photographers can snap pics of the Ponte Vecchio bridge, and serious shoppers can spend a blissful afternoon wandering the shops of Piazza Santo Spirito. Tuscan cuisine pays homage to the region’s bounty. Swipe a hunk of crusty bread across a pool of local olive oil and you’ll be instantly transported to your happiest place.

Giardino Bardini

Reviewed By sophiem923 - Ermenonville, France

The garden was recommended by a guide book and it did not disappoint. It is quite simply the most beautiful view on Florence. Definitely worth the climb. I was able to get some fresh air despite the heat. Do not miss this hidden gem!

Folon e il Giardino delle Rose

Reviewed By Asaali - Toronto, Canada

Although its a bit of a hike to get here but it is definitely beautiful and so worth the travel. This lovely rose garden with more than 350 variety of roses and contemporary sculptures is a perfect little stop on our way to Piazzale Michelangelo. There are lots of benches to take a seat but we actually grabbed a bottle of wine and some snacks and sat in between the rose bushes to watch the sunset. Totally romantic and definitely beautiful.
