What it is
The Sacro Bosco of Bomarzo is a garden that Prince Vicino Orsini had made in the 16th century, with giant sculptures carved from the rocks of the wood: the Orco with his open mouth, which you can walk into, an elephant with a tower, a tortoise, a dragon, mermaids and a leaning house that makes you dizzy. It is about 20 km from Viterbo, at the foot of the village of Bomarzo.
Opening times and tickets

Last entry one hour before closing. It costs €15 for adults and €9 for children aged 4 to 13.
