Traveler reviews
ALICE POLI
★★★★★a year agoUn giardino meraviglioso, una vera oasi di pace tranquilla, con panchine e una splendida vista su Bologna e sul parco dei gessi bolognesi.
Tiziana Pedretti
★★★★★5 years agoLa posizione è bellissima sul cucuzzolo della collinetta del parco, ma dovremo aspettare la fioritura di queste piante collocate in questa grande aiuola. Allora sì che saranno circondate dalle farfalle attratte dai fiori.
