  • In April, nature takes centre stage with “Spring in Bloom - Explore the Gardens of Pojega” (Saturday 11 April). A special tour to mark the official opening of the Pojega Gardens, one of the most fascinating examples of Italian gardens, inside Villa Rizzardi. A journey through green geometries, art and history, perfect for welcoming the warm season.
