Two gardens, two moods: Sabatini is formal geometry; Campo del Moro is romantic landscape. Both are extensions of palace choreography outdoors.

Sabatini at a Glance

  • Parterres, clipped hedges, and crisp axes for symmetry lovers.
  • Fountains as focal points structure the stroll.
  • Terraces create layered views of the palace façade.

Campo del Moro Highlights

  • Long axes and water features pull the eye toward the palace.
  • Tall canopies and wildlife create shifting shade and sound.
  • Winding paths reward slow exploration and quiet corners.

Best Photo Windows

  • Sabatini: late afternoon side light for hedge texture.
  • Campo del Moro: early morning mist for depth and atmosphere.

Respect plant beds and stay on marked paths; conservation is part of the visit.
