About
Greiti faktai: Hidden grottoes, grand fountains and more than 400 sculptures create a theatrical landscape where stone figures peek from hedgerows and water features punctuate quiet paths. Climb a wide terrace for sweeping skyline views, and explore an amphitheater and elaborate urns that hint at the pageantry of historical court life.
Svarbiausi dalykai: Step into Bernardo Buontalenti's late-1500s grotto, where shell-encrusted walls, painted stalactites, and dim torchlight make marble statues seem to breathe and glisten. Walk up the long, steep cypress avenue called the Viottolone and you'll notice a centuries-old tradition: visitors still pause at the amphitheatre to clap once and marvel as the echo travels past rows of stone figures toward the Isolotto, a tiny island pond with a weathered fountain.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes and a hat, paths are uneven and the grounds are extensive.
- Bring a refillable water bottle, fountains are decorative but not always drinkable.
- Photograph from the Isolotto and the amphitheatre terraces for classic views of statues and the Duomo.
- Start at the Pitti Palace entrance and work uphill to avoid the biggest midday tour groups.
