Elvira Aldaz
The Original Buontalenti Grotto
Many say that opera was sung for the first time at the Buontalenti Grotto. But truly the creator was, among other things, a grand designer in the service of the Medici and it's easy to see in the décor of this false cave, with stalactites and incrustations of supreme originality. The cave opens for a bit every 2 hours starting at 11 am and is located near the exit of the Boboli Gardens.
