It is the heart of the garden, with a multitude of statues and obelisks adorning the superimposed exedra, almost all of them created by Carlo Simonetta at the end of the 17th century. Among the personifications of art and nature, the statue of the unicorn, the heraldic symbol of the Borromeo family, dominates the whole, while on the sides four obelisks with statues representing the elements of air, water, earth and fire. At the top of the amphitheater, 37 meters above sea level, there is a large terrace, the best place to enjoy the panorama and the garden view.
