Parco del Mostri are the gardens of Bomarzo, Italy that were created in the 16^th century. My favorite sculptures or “monsters” are the Orcus mouth and the snake half woman.

Boboli Gardens were created between the 16^th and 18^th century in Italy. One of my favorite images is the one of the entrance from the courtyard of Pitti Palace.

The Jardin du Luxemburg was created in 1612 in Paris. My favorite image of it is the one of the Fountain of Medicis.
