In a quiet corner of Hunedoara County, near the town of Simeria and the village of Banpotoc, lies a truly special place — one that will surprise you with its unexpected beauty: I Giardini di Zoe. Inspired by the architectural principles of Renaissance gardens from the Italian Peninsula, this splendid retreat is the result of a deep passion for gardening elevated to an art form. An Italian in love with Romania has turned his admiration for nature into a handcrafted masterpiece — a serene green oasis that captivates from the very first glance.
Upon arrival, you’ll be struck by the perfect symmetry and harmony of the landscape, which instantly instills a sense of calm and balance. Every element is carefully designed and placed, and the overall composition exudes refinement and elegance, without ever feeling overwhelming. It’s a place where nature and human creativity come together to craft an impeccable setting. From the vibrant terraces filled with flowers and shrubs, to the gravel paths and graceful arches, each corner of the garden offers a universe of peace and beauty.
At I Giardini di Zoe, order and stylistic balance are the guiding principles. The garden evokes the feeling of a paradise where natural beauty and human artistry blend into an aristocratic landscape worthy of admiration. Every step deepens the experience, immersing you further into its magic and offering a fully sensory escape.
It’s the perfect destination for those seeking to reconnect with nature and discover a place of authentic, uplifting beauty.
