Niki de St. Phalle’s Tarot Garden
The highlight (well, one of several) of my recent trip to Italy was a visit to the Giardino dei Tarocchi, a whimsical, creative sculpture-filled garden created by the artist Niki de Saint Phalle. The garden is a bit of a drive north from Rome (or south from Siena), making it somewhat out-of-the-way for most tourists. But for fans of the artist’s work, the trip (and the EUR 10.50 entrance fee) are more than worth it. Check the garden’s website for opening hours and days (it is closed for most of the winter).

I never visted the real thing but strolled through it when it was still accessible via internet.
Great!

I am looking for a picture of the Tarot Garden I can publish in a guide. Can anybody help me?
