The centrepiece of the garden is the Teatro Massimo, with ten terraces that explode in a riot of different coloured flowers and blooms. Statues, obelisks and fountains integrate perfectly with the flora of these ten spectacular terraces, at the top of which stands the statue of a unicorn – the heraldic symbol of the aristocratic Borromeo family, who have owned the island for more than half a millennium.
