Extravagant Gardens, great article

Here are some links on the Medici Villa at Pratolino. One of the links shows three Medici villas, one at Castello, one at Petraia (they are right next to each other in a suburb of Florence) and the one at Pratolino. I've been to the first two, but not this one...

Well, it took me about nine years on google to find anything about Villa Pamphili, since there is a big hotel of the same name. Here's the best link on the villa and its grounds that I found so far - http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=it&u=http://web.romascuola.net/giorgieri/verde%2520metropolitano/museo_comunale.html&prev=/search%3Fq%3DParco%2BVilla%2BPamphili%26start%3D30%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26sa%3DN
