..each garden is, first of all, the learning of time, of the weather which is like rain, wind and sun and of time passing, the cycle of seasons ...

Villa Toeplitz
Villa Toeplitz is located a few minutes from Villa Porro Pirelli and boasts a really interesting flower park. Entrance to the park is free.
Entering the park of Villa Toeplitz means limestone a soil that smells of history. The great attention that was dedicated to the park at the time of the creation, allowed us to return a gem of particular environmental, ecological and landscape value.
The park brings together many different garden styles: from the specifically formal "Italian" style garden, where you can observe box hedges maintained with formal pruning, parterres, symmetrical cypress castles and arabesques in dwarf boxwood that intertwine to embellish a wonderful central water chain, the "English" style garden, where large and majestic cedar, beech and oak trees alternate with large expanses of lawn.
To embellish the whole, large and silent lakes, which seem to slow down the frenzy of these days and restore a sense of tranquility, light-heartedness and peace. Not so far from the Villa, there is a beautiful and well-preserved Carpino rock, one of the few now left to testify to completely disappeared game methods.
