The 'Giardino dei Boboli' is located behind the 'Palazzo Pitti' and it is said to be the most beautiful garden of Tuscany. I love to come here for a stoll together with my kids , being fortunate residents of Florence we have free entrance to this beautiful garden (not indicated for strollers as there are some steep paths).

Do not miss the Boboli garden if you're in Florence. This wonderful and hilly oasis of peace is filled with statues, and designed in the typical Italian style. You can enjoy quiet walks on a cool summer days, but for me the autumn is the most perfect season to visit this city garden/park.

The colors, the smell, the stillness .. absolutely fantastic. And to think that all the traffic is buzzing beneath you but here in the park, you will not hear a thing. Why not relax a bit on a bench near the Neptune Fountain, or climbing the beautiful spiral staircase up to the Rose Garden and the Porcelain Museum, here you find yourself on the highest point of the garden with a magnificent view of the hills that surround Florence.

Walk down the beautiful cypress avenue (Vialone), where you will find the mysterious Isolotto pond. If you are lucky you can see the large collection of citrus plants in large terracotta pots in the middle of the pond on the little island (in the winter they stay in the 'limonaia').
