Originally the garden of a 16th-century monastery, the Bulgari Hotel garden became an outdoor living area in the 19th century. An oasis in the heart of Milan, it provides guests with inspiring views of the forms, volumes and colors composed by its trees, lawns and flowers. The variety of plants is a contemporary evocation of the gardens of Milan’s historic villas and of the Lombardian character of the landscape. Its beauty is emphasized by the view of the Botanical Garden, created in 1774 and planted with exotic species during the Napoleonic period.
