The museum showcases various works like paintings, furniture, and porcelain from the Terruzzi collection. Unfortunately, due to historical events, the villa retains only a few furnishings from Queen Margherita&#8217;s time. It would have been great to see the spaces as the Queen had them in her winter residence.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss the chance to enjoy the stunning views of Bordighera and the Italian Riviera all the way to the French coast from the rooftop terrace, which also has a coffee shop. A walk through the park surrounding the villa is also delightful. The only downside is finding parking; it&#8217;s challenging to find a spot near the villa and the climb might deter some visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets cost 8 euros, reduced tickets are 6 euros, and children under 6 enter for free. Guided tours are available for 10 euros on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Bordighera is in the province of Imperia, located between Ventimiglia and San Remo, which are 6 and 11 kilometers away, respectively (30 miles from Monte Carlo).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2009, thanks to a smart agreement between the government and the Terruzzi family, Villa Regina Margherita, which once belonged to Queen Margherita, was turned into a museum.
