Giardini del Molosiglio, Urban park in San Ferdinando district, Naples, Italy.
This 21,000-square-meter garden contains three monumental fountains: the Papyrus Fountain, the Shell Fountain, and the Lions Fountain.
The gardens were designed in the 1920s as part of urban development programs connecting eastern Naples to the Chiaia waterfront.
The Monument to the Infantry, a Corinthian column surrounded by five blocks inscribed with major battles, honors soldiers who died in World War I.
Visitors can reach the gardens on foot from the historic center or take city buses that stop on Via Acton.
The name Molosiglio derives from the Spanish word 'molosillo', meaning small pier, reflecting the maritime heritage of this area.
