Parks in Spain

Antoni Gaudi's architectural creations have a place of honour in the park. Among the copies of his famous works is a model of the Sagrada Familia cathedral. It doesn't look as overwhelming and intimidating as the original, so it's safe to view even with a toddler.

More recently, the playground was supplemented by a water entertainment zone: from small, ankle-deep pools, streams of water splash in all directions. Water is pouring from above, as if from a shower. To immediately get wet from head to toe, just slide into the pool from the water slide. Take socks ...

One of the slopes of the Collserola mountain range was cultivated at the end of the 18th century. It began as a neo-classical garden, and in the mid-nineteenth century, a romantic garden was also created. Despite the boring names, both parks promise plenty of adventure for children.

But during its existence, Citadel Park (Parc de la Ciutadella) acquired other structures. For example, the Arc de Triomphe, which was built for the World Exhibition of 1888, the Castle of the Three Dragons, and the amazing Cascade Fountain. Antonio Gaudi, then a novice architect, took part in the ...

The design and construction of the park lasted from 1901 to 1914; according to the project, residential buildings and gardens were to be located on 17 hectares. Unfortunately, in 1914, Eusebi Güell died, and work on the project stopped. The heirs of the count sold the hill with the unfinished ...

The park was laid out in 2007 on the site where the artillery battery was used to defend the city during the Spanish Civil War. Although the need to shoot back from the enemy has long disappeared, the defence lines have been restored, and the guns are in their original place — only now they ...

The Cacti Algar Botanical Garden opened in Callosa d'en Sarrià in 2001 and has been planted since 1996. The 500 species of succulents, plants adapted to the arid climate, are spread over an area of around 50,000 square metres. There are 3 km of paths through the garden, and each turn ...

The primary type of recreation in the park is blissful idleness. You can stroll along the lanes, sit in the shade on a bench, sunbathe or picnic on the lawn, swim in the lake or go boating. For younger fidgeters, you should stay close to the playgrounds.

El Capricho Park is a testament to the vision and passion of the Duchess of Osuna, María Josefa Pimentel, and her family. This exquisite park reflects the artistic and cultural movements of the 18th Century, blending lavish landscapes with historical significance. El Capricho Park, a ...

The Parque Infantil Gulliver was built in 1992 and immediately became one of Valencia's favourite children's attractions. If you look at the playground from above (e.g. from the nearby Ferris wheel), you can see the figure of a sleeping man.

The Madrid Rio Park is a promenade on the two banks of the Manzanares River. The city moved part of the M-30 ring road up to its underground intersection with the A-5 motorway. This manoeuvre freed up 10 kilometres of track for a pedestrian walkway! It was erected in five years (2006-2010).

The playground is the central part of any recreational area for parents with children. Malaga Park has also set up two significant areas for children to play. In addition to the usual slides, swings and merry-go-rounds, several attractions can be found here.
