Visiting Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild Gardens

The Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild was built in 1912 for Baroness Ephrussi-Rothschild who had unlimited wealth and refined tastes. To make the gardens in front of the villa the baroness had a small hill removed and then had tons of earth brought back for the gardens. We visited the gardens on a quiet Tuesday in St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat in early May after the roses were celebrated during the weekend with "La Fête des Roses et des Plantes". In May all nine gardens were in season. At the end of the video, there&a clip of the fountain show with classical music in the French Garden.
