Nice experience, wonderful plants and trees. Ruins well preserved. The english guide is excellent! Well educated with lots of knowledge about the area, botanics, history… Kind and welcoming.
A very beautiful garden. However, it is only possible to see the garden on a tour, so you are always in a group, standing for long periods. I was not, personally, very interested in most of the information that was given (like the names of the people who lived in the mansion). The guide was clearly enthusiastic, and considered this to be the most beautiful garden in the world. It was lovely, but I didn’t ever manage to feel the atmosphere. It was also incredibly hot. Try to visit at a better time than August! A few seats would have been lovely (and saved the guide from constantly telling people not to sit/lean on the walls).
Giardino di Ninfa is, without exaggeration, one of the cleanest, most well-kept, and breathtakingly beautiful gardens I’ve seen—by global standards. Every corner feels curated by nature and reverence. The water sources are truly magical to witness, like something out of a dream. Be sure to get your tickets in advance and opt for the guided tour—it’s a must-see experience that lingers in the soul.
I just saw a surprisingly low review where someone complained about the vegetation and that it is nothing special. And while that may be true, IT IS STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! My trip was several years ago but after this review I actually felt the need to chime in. I saw the garden in a TV documentary about gardening and was able to visit it years later. I find the entrance fee well worth it and I wish the tour had been longer or slower, giving me more time to take in the magic. It is so beautifully laid out between the ruins and the atmosphere is really special. And I am glad (and grateful to myself 😉) that I pre-booked two tickets so I could get in back to back. Once to take it all in and the second time to take pictures. And you know what? If I ever get the chance again to go there I will do the same. It is a wonderfully tranquil and peaceful place. Serene, really. And I can only thank the wonderful people who maintain it and am grateful that this beautiful piece of this world is open to the public.
I had high expectations for this place and unfortunately, it was not as expected Only Italian tours are available (not English) 🥀To take an amazing shot of the flowers an the scenery you'll need to go in early spring to admire them so the flowers that you observe in the pics are only in June. 🥲 It is only 1 one-hour tour and you are always with the guide guy and the group and to take nice pics they are always on your way. 🍃 I give only two starts because I was in many botanical gardens in London and I feel that they are more to see and to do compared to this place (18€ this place for one hour - £25 key gardens all day) I think that would be a better idea to have a audio tour available in English and in Italian and to let people explore in freedom. The tour guide had to wait until everyone was close to star talking and a lot of people was always behind taking pictures and they didn't care even if all of us were waiting under the burning sun 😔 👍Dog friendly 👍Toillettes available
A beautiful park, crated 100 years ago in the ruins of an ancient village . A very romantic park with ruins , river, flowers and trees. Only accessible with a guided tour, not individually. Closed over lunch . There is a cafe at the entry.
Ninfa's garden is probably one of the most beautiful and rich gardens in the world. There are a lot if plants species and it has a greatly performed maintenance. May to July is probably the best time you can visit it. It also have a well explained history and there are also many ruins, flowers, fields and rivers letting it seem like a fairy tales world
A truly beautiful and romantic rustic garden that just says nature and medival times combined! It’s only open certain times of the year to preserve its nature habit and to prevent distractive human traffic. It is child Friendly too! There’s a gift shop where you can buy souvenirs! We got a Ninfa garden pizze which a great reminder of our visit here!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful building from the 1500s, in my opinion one of the most beautiful points of Cisterna both on an aesthetic and cultural level. I find it so fascinating perhaps also because the memories of my childhood are linked to this building, in fact it is precisely here that I spent my first years of school. (Original) Bellissimo palazzo del 1500, a mio parere uno dei punti più belli di Cisterna sia a livello estetico e culturale.

(Translated by Google) The caves of Palazzo Caetani are located in the historic center of Cisterna di Latina, they constitute a complex of caves, quarries and underground tunnels up to 15 meters deep, which wind under the palace itself and the center of the town directed towards unknown destinations. During the Second World War the caves became a safe refuge for around 4000 inhabitants of Cisterna. Too bad you can only visit a small part. (Original) Le grotte di palazzo Caetani si trovano nel centro storico di Cisterna di Latina, costituiscono un complesso di grotte, cave e cunicoli sotteranei profondo fino a 15 metri, che si snodano sotto il palazzo stesso e il centro del paese dirette verso destinazioni sconosciute. Le grotte durante la seconda guerra mondiale diventarono un rifugio sicuro per circa 4000 abitanti di Cisterna. Peccato che si può solo visitare solo una piccola parte.
(Translated by Google) Built in 1500 by the Caetani family, today it is one of the most significant symbols of Cisterna. Numerous cultural events and demonstrations are held inside every year. There is also the municipal library and a cowboy museum.

(Translated by Google) This place is in my opinion one of the most beautiful places on the planet (and I'm not joking!) I live near it. And this fantastic monument to an infinite history that goes from the Romans to the Gaetani family and up to the present day is an emblem of the fantastic city of Cisterna di Latina. If any tourist were to take a holiday here they would never and would never get lost. to visit this palace which is also located in an area almost included in the gardens where there is also the fantastic Biondi Fountain which also has historical origins from the past. The most beautiful thing about this building is not the exterior but the fantastic early Christian caves located underneath which are truly beautiful. Congratulations to the staff administrators who preserve this fantastic place!!! (Original) Questo luogo é secondo me uno dei luoghi più belli del pianeta(e non scherzo!) Io ci abito vicino E questo fantastico monumento a una infinita storia che va dai romani fino alla famiglia Gaetani e ad arrivare ai giorni nostri un emblema della fantastica città di Cisterna di Latina se qualche turista dovesse fare una vacanza qui non potrebbe mai è proprio mai perdersi di visitare questo palazzo che inoltre si trova in una zona quasi compresa ai giardinetti dove c'è anche lì la fantastica Fontana Biondi anche essa avente origine storica dal passato. La cosa più bella di questo edificio non è l'esterno ma sono le fantastiche grotte dei paleocristiani situate sotto davvero bellissime Complimenti agli amministratori dello staff che conservano questo fantastico luogo!!!

(Translated by Google) A green area with 3/4 artificially created ponds inside to recreate a suitable habitat for many animals, especially birds, an experience not to be missed. Also impressive is the recreation of a medieval-style nave made entirely of trees where at the end you find 2 lateral pines and an olive grove in the center, in short, a truly spectacular recreation. The future project of the butterfly garden is also beautiful, I can't wait to see it realised. (Original) Un area verde con all'interno 3/4 stagni laghetti creati artificialmente per ricreare un abitat idoneo a molti animali, soprattutto uccelli, un esperienza da non perdere.

Bello anche il progetto futuro del giardino delle farfalle, non vedo l'ora di vederlo realizzato.
(Translated by Google) An oasis you don't expect. A beautiful place next to the gardens of Ninfa but completely different from the famous garden this is a place where you can see everything from birds to insects passing from small mammals to dragonflies of many different colors as well as butterflies. And the different species of trees that surround the ponds full of life, from the huts where you can admire the spectacle of nature. A must visit and revisit place.

E le diverse specie di alberi che contornano gli stagni pieni di vita,dai capanni dove puoi ammirare lo spettacolo della natura. Un posto assolutamente da visitare e rivisitare.
(Translated by Google) It is an example of reconstruction of the marsh environment. A wonderful experience lived with the school group in observing nature. The flora ponds, the bird lake with coots, the gray heron, the ferruginous duck, the mallards, the teal... the amphibian pond. There are bird watching huts and observation points. The atmosphere in the tree grove and along the various paths is beautiful. You can see the ruins of the neighboring town of Ninfa. A place that is very suitable for various in-depth studies and educational paths with the various study cycles. (Original) È un esempio di ricostruzione dell'ambiente palustre. Una bellissima esperienza vissuta con la scolaresca nell'osservazione della natura.

Ci sono i capanni di birdwatching e punti di osservazione. Bellissima l'atmosfera nell'alboreto e attraverso i vari sentieri. Si scorgono i ruderi della confinante cittadina di Ninfa. Un luogo che si presta molto per vari approfondimenti e percorsi didattici con i vari cicli di studio.
