Villa Reale, Milano

How can you not love a place where you can walk into a public garden and find a temple to the Greek Fates and passages from Aeneas' journey through Hades from Virgil's Aeneid?


at laeva malorum
exercet poenas, et ad impia Tartara mittit.

Parcarumque dies et vis inimica propinquat.

hac iter Elysium nobis

— Publius Vergilius Maro, Aeneis , VI.542 / XII.150 / X.542
