GIARDINI RAVINO

One of the biggest and widest succulent plant collections in Europe. 
Recognized by the Tourist Commission of the European Parliament and Council of Europe Observatory “for being the most distinguished activity in southern Italy, in the area of tourism for environmental and social enhancement”.

A fascinating journey through the greenery to discover surprising scenery and rare and precious botanical specimens. A rich collection of cacti and succulents cultivated outdoor, constantly enriched with new species from all over the world, the result of the naturalistic passion of Giuseppe D’Ambra, and embellished with the extraordinary presents of the Woollemi Pine, the most sensational discovery of the century. Amongst these botanical rarities peacocks can be found. Exhibitions of local artists and craftsman can be admired in the gardens, an intertwining of art and nature. A special reality for enthusiasts and experts, perfect for families and ideal for those looking for a place that can satisfy both intellectual curiosity and the need for relaxation and amusement.
