Giant's garden, Public park in Cento, Italy
The Giant's Garden spans 1.3 hectares and features large ceramic mosaic sculptures, including a 30-meter lizard and a 10-meter tall cage.
The garden, created by artist Marco Pellizzola between 2000 and 2006, originated from a fairy tale written by his daughter.
The garden's design draws inspiration from Barcelona's Park Güell benches, incorporating ceramic mosaics that merge with seasonal natural landscapes.
The park remains open from sunrise to sunset, offering free access to visitors who can explore artistic installations and participate in educational activities.
A massive 13-meter blackbird sculpture and an 11-meter leaf structure stand among the garden's extraordinary ceramic mosaic creatures.
