Pergolas are garden overhead structures used to create a shaded area or walkway, with cross beams and open lattice usually supported by pillars in wood or stone. It is believed that the origin of the pergola started in Italy, though this structure can be seen in several Mediterranean countries since long ago. Even in ancient times, the pergolas were widely used by the Romans, to take advantage of shade and coolness, but also to guide their vines and allow the fruit to receive more sun.Pergolas add a special touch to your villa, providing comfort, shade and a special spot to enjoy your home.
