The Floridiana park, one of the most loved green lungs of Napoli, is enriched with a new educational path that invites you to discover its extraordinary botanical heritage.
Starting Saturday, March 29, visitors will be able to immerse themselves in the history and variety of plant species that populate the park, thanks to specially created information panels.
A project born from the heart of Neapolitans
The initiative, entitled “The Plants of the Floridiana Park”, was made possible thanks to the “Places of the Heart” program of the FAI – Italian Environment Fund, in collaboration with Intesa Sanpaolo, the landscape architecture studio “Progetto Verde” of Naples and the co-financing of Sole365.
A result that rewards the affection of the Neapolitans, who in 2020 voted en masse for Floridiana during the tenth FAI census, with 6.117 preferences.
A journey through history, nature and art
The new botanical trail, which will be inaugurated on Saturday 29 March at 11.00 am at the entrance on Via Cimarosa, winds through the avenues of the park, revealing the secrets of its oldest and most precious plants.
Three panels with the general map of the park and ten smaller panels, positioned in correspondence with the selected essences, offer detailed information and curiosities, transforming the visit into a real botanical treasure hunt.
A 360-degree enhancement project
The initiative is part of a broader project to enhance the park, launched in 2022, which saw the organization of meetings with expert botanists, zoologists and art historians, to deepen the knowledge of the tree species, fauna and history of the Floridiana.
A journey that intertwines nature, art and history, made possible thanks to the collaboration with the University of Naples Federico II, the zoological society K'Nature and the association Progetto Museo.

it's a very interesting initiative, I like that there are more routes to discover the Floridiana, but I hope that the information panels are clear and easy to understand for all visitors and not just for experts.
yes, i agree with you, it is important that information is accessible to everyone. But i wonder if there will also be tour guides to better explain the plants and the history of the park.
