Le jardin de Boboli (en italien : Giardino di Boboli) est un parc historique de la ville de Florence, adjacent au palais Pitti, de la Porta Romana au Forte Belvedere. Le jardin, bâti sur la colline, qui reçoit chaque année plus de 800 000 visiteurs, est remarquable non seulement pour sa valeur historique et ses paysages, mais aussi pour sa collection de sculptures romaines et florentines des XVIe et XVIIe siècles.
Le jardin, situé derrière le palais Pitti, résidence d'abord des Médicis, puis des Habsbourg-Lorraine et des Savoie, remonte au XVIe siècle. Au premier agencement de style Renaissance, visible dans le noyau le plus proche du palais, s'adjoignirent au cours des années de nouvelles parties de style différent : le long de l'axe parallèle au palais furent créées des allées recouvertes de gravillons, de nouveaux plans d'eau et leurs isolotto (petites îles), des fontaines avec des nénuphars, de petits temples et des grottes. Dans ce jardin, les statues et les « fabriques », comme la kaffeehaus ou Casa del Caffè (établie dans un bâtiment construit en 1776 par Zanobi del Rosso en pur style rococo exotique) jouent un rôle remarquable, et permettent de jouir du panorama que le jardin offre sur la ville.
Cannot believe the amount of people here confusing Stoldo Lorenzi's 'Fountain of the Fork' in the Boboli Gardens with Bartolomeo Ammannati's Fountain of Neptune at Piazza della Signoria. The latter is a collossal marble Neptune based upon Cosimo I de Medici and reflects the Florentine's 16th century naval prowess. It is completely free since it is in a public space, and is always open for the same reason. There are no ducks to feed, maybe the odd pigeon though, but the fountain keeps good comany in the beautiful piazza with the likes of Bandinelli's Hercules and Cellini's Perseus with the head of Medusa (also free). The reason people commenting earlier expected something bigger is because they were looking at a completely different fountain.

Cool, seating around this area is great, closed at 730pm EXACTLY, so make sure you have enough time to walk around and make a small picnic.

I thought I was going to see the same Statue of Neptune from the pictures but it's just a dirty pond with a very rough ugly statue different from the one in the square. Overgrown with grass. Not at all impressive. I really want my money back.

Nice quiet spot to watch the ducks and rest on a bench.
