Monty Don's Paradise Gardens

Monty Don begins his quest for the secrets of Paradise Gardens, in Spain, where he discovers their basic building blocks. In Morocco, he sees the wide variety of paradise gardens from an enormous royal walled meadow, to a secret inner city courtyard. And in the Iranian desert he uncovers the mystery to their creation.

In the concluding episode, Monty uncovers the different visions of paradise gardens created by other cultures. In Istanbul he is dazzled by sacred tulips and delights in nature at the gardens of the Ottoman Empire. In India he discovers the spirituality of tomb gardens and back in the UK he reveals the surprising influence that paradise gardens have had on Royal gardens and public spaces.
