Giardini Pubblici & Biennale
Creation of the Giardini Pubblici, the most extensive (if now slightly tatty) public gardens in the city, was ordered by Napoleon in 1807. They were officially opened in 1811, just three years before his demise. To create them, he had an entire residential district (including four churches) razed. In the gardens you'll find shaded benches, a few giostre (swings and other kids' rides) and a snack bar/restaurant.
