Hiking
Located in the heart of Ascoli Piceno, the Giardini dell'Episcopio are an ancient episcopal space recently reopened to the public. The area is now perfectly maintained, with neat paths and lush vegetation offering an oasis of tranquility in the historic center.
In the center, we find a monumental circular basin fountain housing goldfish, often referred to simply as the putto (or bambino) fountain due to the travertine sculpture that tops it. At the far end of the gardens, there is also a small structure used for breeding doves.
