Lonely Planet review for Quartiere Coppedè

Best entered from the corner of Via Tagliamento and Via Dora, this compact quarter is a mesmerising mishmash of Tuscan turrets, Liberty sculptures, Moorish arches, Gothic gargoyles, frescoed façades and palm-fringed gardens, all designed by little-known Florentine architect Gino Coppedè between 1913 and 1926. At its heart is whimsical Piazza Mincio and the Fontana delle Rane (Fountain of the Frogs), a modern take on the better known Fontana delle Tartarughe in the Jewish Ghetto.
