About
Brze činjenice: A lush urban garden snakes up a gentle slope, offering shady promenades, marble sculptures, and a mix of Mediterranean and subtropical plantings that draw joggers, families, and students. Local vendors and bookstalls set up on Saturdays and Sundays, the scent of citrus granita mixing with cut grass to give the place a relaxed, neighborhood-festival vibe.
Istaknuto: A long, vaulted avenue of plane trees forms a green tunnel where sunlight dapples the gravel and you can count roughly 40 trunks standing like weathered columns. At dusk small groups often gather on a low terrace to share homemade sweets and strummed guitars, the music swelling for about ten minutes before folding back into quiet conversation.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable walking shoes, paths include gravel and gentle slopes.
- Bring a hat and water in summer, shade is limited in some southern sections.
- Head to the eastern side at golden hour for photos with the central fountain and Mount Etna in the background.
- Avoid weekend late mornings by visiting on weekday mornings when locals play bocce and the atmosphere is quieter.
