The Boboli Garden is a magnificent historical park that boasts one of the finest examples of an Italian Garden. Initially designed for the Medici family in 1550 and opened to the public in 1766, the gardens span 45, 000 square meters and feature different sections including a vast main lawn with a fountain and an obelisk, a small lake and several large ponds complete with water features, hundreds of white marble statues, and an ancient amphitheater with an Egyptian obelisk that was taken from the Medici Villa in Rome. Connected to the Palazzo Pitti, the Boboli Gardens are some of the largest in Florence and offer a welcome escape from the touristy hustle and bustle of the city.
