Thanks to all for the comments!
Denyse… I hope you get to see it one day.
Elizabeth… Now I need to add the Tyrol Museum to my list of must-see places!
Stanley… Yes, it’s a pity Taranto isn’t better known; it deserves to be.
Sylvia… It is beautiful; and these photos were taken in late October!

Absolutely beautiful. Although we lived near Torino (Rivoli) for several years in two different periods, we never heard of this. Thank you so much for this contribution. It is reminscent of the Swedish? gardens on the island on Bodensee (Lake Constance).

We were there years ago and found it delightful. Another attraction in the North in Merano is the South Tyrol Museum of Tourism located in Trauttmansdorff Castle. This is a plus place to visit! The gardens are extremely beautiful. One gets the dual pleasure of visitng the Castle where they feature what famous people have stayed where with wonderful exhibits relating to the history of travel and hours spent wandering the gardens that wind down the hill from the castle.
