The Italian commune Bomarzo is known for its sacred forest, which is also called Monster Park (Mostri Park). It is considered one of the most striking examples of monuments of the Renaissance period, made by architect Perro Ligorio.
The construction of the park began in the first half of the sixteenth century, and was completed by the end of the century. It includes about thirty sculptures depicting mythological creatures and imagined animals. Visiting the Monster Park for inspiration was and is a very popular activity among creative people. And Salvador Dali was one of these people.
