Welcome To Dandello's Garden & Helps

Gardens likewise are a product of the yearning which grows from the humiliations and dashed hopes of daily life, and are thus the reflection and counter-image of a more beautiful world. Designed to bridge borders, gardens shed light on the historical reality of their creation and creators. Like all Utopias, they criticize a concrete political situation, social relationships, constrains and shortcomings.
