What you'll see
Broad terraces cut into the hillside beside the castle, with lawns, old trees, a grotto and a balustrade over the valley: the best free view of the castle and the town.
A brief history
It was laid out from 1616 for a young prince and his English bride, and was famous as a wonder of Europe, but war stopped work before it was finished.
