Named the most beautiful park in Italy in 2011, Villa Lante is one of the most famous gardens in Italy and one of the icons of the architecture of the Renaissaince. Only four kilometres away from Viterbo, Villa Lante offers a fantastic spectacle of twenty two hectares of luxuriant gardens and an astonishing fountains system. The beautiful vegetation of the park accompanies visitors at the entrance of the elegant Villa.

The Villa consists in two nearly identical buildings, each of which has a ground floor of rusticated arcades or loggias which support the structure above.
