Villa di Castello

What travelers say:

The Italian Renaissance gardens are, as is known, the result of architects and landscapers who have worked mainly in the Florence and Rome areas. In this context, therefore, the garden models of that era and the ideas behind them can be studied at its best: eg, the perfection attributed - according to the Neoplatonic ideas - to geometric shapes and therefore sought also in the gardens; the will to interpenetrate architecture and green space; the "architectural" role of water, etc.
