The Boboli Gardens established for the Pitti Palace by Eleonor de Toledo were planned first by Tribolo, then Ammanati and others.
The gardens are quite different from other famous gardens of the Renaissance in the following two points.
First, the Boboli Gardens has an extraordinary large extension compared with those of urban villas reflecting the times and the authority of Cosimo I.
Second, there are two centers in the gardens, while other Italian gardens of the Renaissance are always unitary, i. e. they have main vistas only from the residences, and it depends upon the fact that the gardens must have been established in South and West of the Palace built by Luca Pitti and later bought by Cosimo I.
This is the reason why the Pitti Palace has two gardens separately in the south and the west, although the ornaments in the Boboli Gardens and those of other famous gardens of the Renaissance are alike.
