Let yourself be enchanted by the splendor of the green and the thousand colors of the nature of the gardens of Brescia

Tourism in Brescia is perfect for nature lovers and outdoors enthusiasts who will appreciate visiting the province's green spaces.

 

Consider visiting the gardens of Parco delle Colline for example, the Tarello or the one in the castle, growing on the slopes of the Cidneo Hill with a breathtaking view of the city center. 

One of the most important gardens in Brescia is the Ducos, harboring a pond that serves as an habitat for turtles and acquatic birds

To visit the gardens in Lombardy means to journey into peaceful tourism oases. Gardone Riviera, already a famous destination due to Gabriele D'Annunzio's Vittoriale and the Andrè Heller botanical garden. Here you will walk among three thousand plant species from around the world. Bamboo forests, palm groves water lilies and lotus flowers, plus the sculptures of Mimmo Palladino, Keith Haring and Roy Lichtenstein. 

Amid the numerous gardens Brescia has to offer, there is the one in Toscolano Maderno, with medicinal herbs spreading all over it. In order to see them, it is necessary to make reservations.
