The Rose Garden was built in 1865 by the architect Giuseppe Poggi, from which the street takes its name. Since 1998 it has been enriched by the "Shorai", a Japanese oasis created by architect Yasuo Kitayama.
Lately, the Rose Garden in Florence has also been enriched by the installations of the Belgian artist Jean-Michel Folon, donated to the City of Florence by his wife.
The garden is open from dawn till dusk every day with free entrance. A perfect spot to relax, read a book and enjoy a stunning panoramic view of Florence.
