Of course, it’s not just couples that fancy this 370-hectare garden, but the magnificence of this garden cannot be understated. This urban haven is known for its lakes, groves and of course, the romantic rose garden. Grab roller skates or a small pedal cart to breeze through the crowds and ride to the lakeside. If you’re in the mood to watch the passing scenery as you float by, rent a paddle to traverse the lovely waters. Guilty about the local food you might have overindulged in? Head to the running track to get in a healthy dose of exercise, with the added bonus of the excellent circuit. On the other hand, if you have the perfect food for a picnic, settle on the grass and enjoy the tranquility of the place.

Gaze at the beautiful roses at the Rosedal garden, with its many stone and bronze busts of famed poets like Luigi Pirandello and William Shakespeare. Aspiring astronomers, the Galileo Galilei planetarium awaits, with its distinctive sphere supported by three arches. Head inside to stare at the planets and other astronomical wonders projected inside. No matter what gets your blood pumping, there’s sure to be something for you here.
