The healing nature of gardens is explored in Nature Perfected, the Story of the Garden: Garlands of Repose, as host William Howard Adam travels to Morocco and Italy. The idea of an area set aside for repose and contemplation has appealed to many cultures, including the followers of both the Muslim faith and Christianity. These secluded gardens offer privacy and tranquillity amid the bustle of city life, and might be located in out-of-the-way places such as a Venetian island. They allow citizens to pause during their busy days and take the opportunity to relax among lush plant growth.
