Garden #2 : Park of Villa Reale in Marlia
The Royal Garden of Marlia, whose first owner was Napoleon Bonaparte’s sister, Princess Elisa Baciocchi, has recently undergone a major restoration. A luxurious green lawn, the teatro di verzura, laid in the 17th century, rolls from the Renaissance villa down to a picturesque lake. This has been restored, with terracotta statues in their original places. Trees, shrubs, camellias and boxwood hedge walks have been cut back to the original size and shape designed by Jacques Gréber in 1924. The colourful Spanish garden is particularly impressive, with fountains fed by a network of irrigation channels.

Con grande onore siamo stati selezionati tra centinaia di giardini visitabili e inoltre, dominiamo la classifica del Guardian al secondo posto!
Il lungo processo di ristrutturazione e rinnovamento del parco ha permesso a Villa Reale di diventare un “luogo da non perdere” durante una visita in Toscana e siamo felici che Judith Wade, presidente del network Grandi Giardini Italiani, abbiamo proprio il parco di Villa Reale tra i suoi preferiti!
Non ci resta che aspettarvi per farvi sperimentare la bellezza e le emozioni che i giardini di Elisa Bonaparte sapranno suscitare in voi!
