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!

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.
