Traveler reviews
Gordon Street TV
★★★★★a year agoOk this is my favourite park in Florence. LOVE THE TURTLES they give great vibes. They are so chill and kids and adults love them. Big fish is cute but kinda mean to the turtles. I'm a bit sad you can't eat or bring pets but overall a great park. 5 stars

★★★★★5 years agoReally great park and perfect to have a sit down and read a book on the grass or on a bench! They are loads of turtles in the little pond which is also a nice thing to see if you are bringing the kids. It’s dog free though so beware. That’s not a bad thing if you are over stepping on t**** around town.
