Giardino del Lago :The accesses to the garden are in via Madama Letizia and in viale Pietro Canonica. This is an English garden, transformed by Piano dei
Licini by
Marcantonio IV Borghese at the end of the 18th century into a fashionable garden. Together with the Aspruccis as directors of the works, people like
Jacob More alternated between gardeners and artists. Characteristic is the lake in which the
Temple of Aesculapius is reflected. :The first historical sources attesting to the works on the Piano dei Licini date back to 1784, works which ended in 1790 with Mario Asprucci as director. In addition to the aforementioned temple of Aesculapius, the temple of Antoninus and Faustina and the temple of Diana were inserted, all in
neoclassical style, works immersed in an
English garden style garden, although the presence of straight paths and the use of classical furnishings were quite far from the fashionable gardens of the time in France and England. Very little remains of these furnishings: in addition to the three temples, the sarcophagus of
Phaethon, a column, some ollas and a statue. But contemporary citations suggest the area was dotted with statues. The most recent statuary group is the bronze one with satyrs playing with their little one, from 1929. •
Piazzale Scipione Borghese Garden or
Rear Garden of Casino Nobile :Originally there was the Narcissus fountain surrounded by ancient statues, furnishings and four
herms perhaps by
Pietro Bernini and
Gian Lorenzo Bernini. The garden, as we see it today, is a twentieth-century development with the replacement of the previous fountain with that of
Venus surrounded by a classical garden. •
Giardini Segreti (Secret Gardens) :They are located in Viale dell'Uccelliera, on the border between the first and second enclosures. :Originally they were located on both sides of the Casino Nobile. •
Parco dei Daini :It is located in via P. Raimondi. The garden was a reserve of the prince and was surrounded by some herms by Pietro and Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Attached to the border wall there was the "Perspective of the Theatre", from 1615, with relief decorations. The name derives from the fact that in the park, until the end of the Nineteenth century, there were
fallow deer and
gazelles. :On the edge of the Parco dei Daini, on the corner between via Pinciana and via Pietro Raimondi, is located the "Villa Umberto Barracks", headquarters of the mounted squad of the
Polizia di Stato. •
Valle dei Platani : It is located in Largo P. Picasso. It has remained more or less unchanged since the 17th century and is also known by the name of "Valle dei cani" ("Valley of the dogs"), because it is used as a play area for dogs. It consists, among other things, of
platani planted by Cardinal Scipione. == Museums ==
