Full description
The Borges Labyrinth on San Giorgio Maggiore island takes its idea from The Garden of Forking Paths, a short story by the Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges. It is about one kilometre long and has 3,200 boxwood plants.
An audio guide in English or Italian takes you through it, with music by Antonio Fresa played by the Teatro La Fenice Orchestra. After the maze, visit the Nuova Manica Lunga, once the dormitory of Benedictine monks and now a library with about 100,000 books on 1,400 metres of shelves.
