MY PICK OF THE REAL PARADISE GARDENS OF THE WORLD The gardens of the Emperors and Nobles were designed for recreation and aesthetic pleasure, while the gardens of temples were designed for contemplation and meditation. All these involve a creative way of designing the landscape with manicured grass, hedges and blooming flowers. However the Japanese have mastered the art of real serene natural gardens surrounding silent ponds and lakes. The Italians have created the rennaisance gardens with sculptures and fountains with the lead from Michael Angelo, though the French have maintained a blend of traditional and modern themes with the best gardens of the world. Well considering all that is beautiful in outdoor gardening, here are my pick of the best floral and natural gardens of the world. With the best of regards. TONY CHACKO tonychacko2000@gmail.com

REAL PARADISE GARDENS OF THE WORLD

Tony Chacko

It is difficult to imagine the Palace of Versailles without its garden. The garden defines Versailles as much as the palace. The garden is huge. Unless you live in Paris you are unlike to visit all the fountains, the avenues and the groves. The garden is as much as a sculpture garden as it is as a water garden. There are many sculptures and most of them are copies or modelled from ancient Greek sculptures. The Apollo theme run through the entire garden. Starting at the Latona Fountain when he was a boy. Slaining the dragon when he was a young man, hence the Dragon Fountain. Finally in his popular role as the Sun God, driving his flaming chariot across the sky. The Apollo fountain is the focal point. It is as important to the garden as the Hall of Mirror to the palace. It connects the Sun King, Louis XIV with the Ancient Greek Sun God of Apollo. Thus connect the glory of the Sun King with the glory of Ancient Greece.
