As Meryl Streep says in The Devil Wears Prada, "Florals? For spring? Groundbreaking."

There are all sorts of gardens around the world that you might want to visit, but nothing is quite as serene as these fields that stretch as far as the eye can see.

For the most perfect pastel experience in Florence, you'll want to go to Piazzale Michelangelo around sunset.
