Giardino Bellini, Urban park in central Catania, Italy.
The garden stretches across 70,942 square meters of land, featuring walking paths, fountains, and numerous statues throughout its landscaped grounds.
The municipality purchased the land in 1854 from Prince Ignazio Paternò Castello of Biscari, transforming the existing labyrinth into a public garden.
The white marble bust of composer Vincenzo Bellini by sculptor Tito Angiolini stands as a central artistic element in the park.
The park provides multiple entry points and paved walkways, making it accessible for visitors throughout the year from morning until evening.
In 1867, the garden contained various animal enclosures housing swans, geese, deer, cows, and monkeys within its grounds.
