Giardino delle Rose
For a brief spring moment, this pungent garden comes to colourful life. A plethora of rose varieties and a modest Japanese garden are on show, and you are high enough here to enjoy views over the city too. The main entrance is a about halfway along the pedestrianised street leading up to Viale Galileo Galilei from the San Niccolò area.

Giardino dei Semplici
Founded in 1545 to furnish medicine to the Medici, these gardens make a nice retreat in a stretch of the city with very little green space. Today its greenhouse is fragrant with citrus blossoms, while outdoors its 2.3 hectares are devoted to medicinal plants, Tuscan spices, and wildflowers from the Apennines.
