Tickets of the Vatican Gardens
One of the most beautiful gardens in Rome, visited by tens of thousands of people every year, is located within the Vatican walls, next to the Vatican Museums.
The Vatican Gardens have always been used by the Popes as a place of prayer and relaxation.
We recommend that you combine a visit to the gardens with a guided tour of the Vatican Museums to discover all the secrets of papal life.
The garden within the walls originally consisted of an orchard, a lawn and a garden.
Its artistic and architectural splendour reached its peak between 500 and 600 when the garden was adorned with statues and fountains thanks to important artists and architects such as Donato Bramante and Pirro Ligorio.
Inside the Vatican Gardens you can admire statues of the Madonna, sanctuaries or temples and caves.
The gardens are embellished by fountains with various water features such as the Galera Fountain, the Fountain of the Eagle and a fountain in the shape of a galleon that shoots jets of water from its cannons.
