Villa Sigurtá and its magnificent parco, which deserves a visit especially from spring when you can admire the first blooms: a myriad of tulips of different qualities bloom between March and April, while irises and roses appear in May; if during the summer paths and avenues are colored with dahlias, in autumn it is possible to admire a particular quality of roses, called remontant; in addition, you will find a labyrinth formed by hedges from all over the world, while a train will take you to discover the wonders of the park with an interesting guided tour.
