“The Royal Gardens in San Marco, a small botanical paradise” The Royal Gardens have a particularly privileged position, right behind Piazza San Marco. They are also close to the pier of vaporetto (Giardinetti and San Marco stops). And that’s the side from which they are accessed. They can be admired from the boat or vaporetto from the Grand Canal. The gardens were planned by Napoleon during his occupation of the city, adjacent to his Royal Palace. Therefore, the park is surrounded by the Correr Museum, the Royal Palace, the Archaeological Museum and the Marciana Library. The central part is the Coffee House, the elegant domed garden pavilion designed by the architect Lorenzo Santi. This little park, covering only half a hectare, is an oasis of greenery and tranquillity. Its paths are covered with pergolas of climbing plants, and there are quite a lot of benches. It’s definitely not a must-see, but if you are wandering near San Marco have a short break there. Entrance is free.
