Giardino dell'Orticultura, Public garden in northern Florence, Italy

The Giardino dell'Orticultura spans across multiple levels with walking paths, ornamental plants, and educational spaces dedicated to botanical studies and gardening practices.

Established in 1859 following initiatives by the Georgofili Academy, the garden became a center for horticultural research and education in Tuscany.

The garden maintains its tradition of hosting flower exhibitions and cultural events in the glass tepidarium, a 650-square-meter structure designed by Giacomo Roster.

The garden features the Horticultural Library, multiple entrances on Via Vittorio Emanuele II and Via Bolognese, and regular guided tours for visitors.

A pedestrian passage leads to the Parnassus Garden, offering views of Florence's traditional San Giovanni fireworks from its snake-shaped fountain.
