Tarot Garden

A great little side trip for anyone visiting Tuscany or northern Lazio is the Tarot Garden in Capalbio, Italy. It was built by a student of Antonio Gaudi'. Niki de Saint Phalle began work on the garden in 1980 and it was officially opened in 1998.

​The sculptures represent the figures of the tarot card deck and are done in very colorful tile. It's a great experience just walking amongst these giant pieces of art, admiring the skill and patience it must have taken to bring it all to life. If you'd like to find out more about the garden, go to Il Giardino Dei Tarocchi website.

Thanks to my cousin Claudio for clueing me in to this fantastic garden.
