Parc de Cervantes (Cervantes Park)
Cervantes Park is well renowned for its roses, which bloom every year from spring through fall, with over 10,000 bushes. The International New Rose Competition, which challenges horticulturists to present new varieties of the fragrant flower every May, is also held there.
This wedge-shaped park, located west of the city center in the Les Corts neighborhood, spans four hectares and makes use of every square inch. Rose vines run along rustic trellises that stretch over the pathways to create flower arcades, giving the park a festive feel throughout, and a long, lush arcade welcomes visitors at the park's entrance off Ronda de Dalt. A well-equipped play area with climbing structures, swings, slides, and table tennis, as well as numerous shaded benches and a fountain, can be found in the park's western section.
