Mantova — Palazzo Te & Giardini
Lombardy
Palazzo Te was designed by Giulio Romano as a lakeside-adjacent pleasure retreat for the Gonzaga dukes, its formal gardens and courtyards offering an easier, more contained walk than the longer lakeside routes around Mantova's three linked lakes. The flat grounds are level and shaded in parts by mature trees.
