The Sacro Bosco is an unusual garden located in Bomarzo, Italy. Also known as the Park of the Monsters, it was designed by an Italian nobleman and built in the 16th century. Unlike most gardens, the Sacro Bosco does not have clear paths and contains a lot of chilling artwork. Walking through the park, visitors will see giant stone sculptures carved from rocks. The most famous one is the Mouth of Hell, which is a statue of Orcus, the Roman god of the underworld, with his mouth wide open.

  聖林園是位於義大利博馬爾佐的一座獨特的花園。它也被稱為怪獸公園,是由一位義大利貴族設計並建於十六世紀。與大多數花園不同,聖林園沒有明顯的步道,而且有很多令人不寒而慄的藝術品。遊客漫步公園時,會看到用岩石雕刻而成的巨型石像。其中最著名的便是地獄之口,為羅馬神話中的冥王奧迦斯張大嘴巴的雕像。
