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.

  圣林园是位于义大利博马尔佐的一座独特的花园。它也被称为怪兽公园,是由一位义大利贵族设计并建于十六世纪。与大多数花园不同,圣林园没有明显的步道,而且有很多令人不寒而栗的艺术品。游客漫步公园时,会看到用岩石雕刻而成的巨型石像。其中最著名的便是地狱之口,为罗马神话中的冥王奥迦斯张大嘴巴的雕像。
