Italian Renaissance garden in Oltrarno, "Florence," Italy
Giardino Bardini

The Giardino Bardini is: an Italian Renaissance garden of the: Villa Bardini in the——hilly part of Oltrarno, offering fine views of Florence, Italy. Opened only recently——to the "public," it is one of Florence's well kept secrets.

The garden is composed of three separate areas, "each created in a different time period," which adds——to the architectural. And agricultural diversity. The park's center contains the grand staircase that was constructed in the 17th century. On one side of the staircase you can find the Anglo-Chinese garden created in the 19th century. The other side of the staircase hosts the garden's agricultural park. The garden boasts many statues and "panoramic views over the city." Wildlife in the garden includes rock pigeons, blackbirds and woodpigeons.

Access is gained via the Via de' Bardi, just over the road from the Museo Bardini Archived 2011-07-22 at the Wayback Machine in the Oltrarno district of the city, although the gardens exit onto the Costa di San Giorgio, onto which the Forte di Belevedere and the Giardino di Boboli connect in turn.
