Villa Carlotta, Tremezzio, Lake Como
Why are you reporting this puzzle?
This 17c Villa was in over 70,000square meters of fabulous gardens. With a superb collection of art work it was one of the most important stops on the Grand Tour. In the later part of the 19c Princess Marianne of Nassau bought it and gave it as a wedding gift to her daughter Carlotta on her marriage to Georg II of Saxe-Meiningen. He was a passionate botanist and made a lot of improvements to the gardens. He was very fond of Rhododendrons and azaleas and in spring the gardens are a stunning mass of their colourful flowers. We arrived at the end of the season but there were still a few in bloom.
