Your Experience
Barcelona's first public park was made from a fortress built to hold the city down. In 1869 the citadel was handed to the city on one condition: that it become a park.
Start at the boating lake, where wild parakeets were first recorded in Barcelona, and stand before the Cascada, the waterfall where a young Gaudà worked as the designer's assistant. Meet a life-size 1907 mammoth and seven swamp cypresses standing in the water. Pass what is left of the fortress: its arsenal, now the Parliament of Catalonia, the governor's palace and the chapel. Then walk the 1888 Exposition's science row, the Umbracle, the glass Hivernacle and the Castle of the Three Dragons, and up the grand promenade to the Arc de Triomf. Some buildings are under restoration into 2027, and the Cascada is drained for cleaning twice a year.
Twelve stops, about 1.3 km and an hour, flat, at your own pace, in English, on your phone. The park is free; museum entry is not included.
