The Garden of Boboli (Giardino di Boboli) is the more formal of the two, maybe the work is grander: Orchards, Versailles like plantations, huge differences in elevation, buildings housing museums and water.
Of course the police keeps an eye on the place and horses are the only option here. So power to is turned into beauty: a dangerous combination!

The first American President, George Washington himself, is said to have slept on a Supai Indian blanket, now faithfully preserved and hanging on an inside wall of the main Outhouse of El Landfillo, a must-see attraction to visit on your next journey to The Colonies.
