Spring is coming
Although officially, spring does not arrive until March 21, time of the equinox in which the day is exactly the same as the night, the fact is that the "green season" is already present in the city, the hours of light are increasing, the cold and rain are becoming smaller and smaller and nature has begun to bloom and seeds to germinate, in the gardens and parks of Barcelona.
Take advantage of the rays of sun and go out from your student residence in Barcelona to take a wlak through the most beautiful gardens of this city.
Our selection is this:
"Park of the center of Poblenou"
Here you will find more than five hectares of gardens with native Mediterranean vegetation, arranged in circles, because if something predominates in this place are the architectural elements perfectly integrated in the landscape in this geometric form, which, in almost all cases, fulfills a practical function and other architectural, playgrounds, pim-pong tables, petanque courts and dog areas, live in harmony with this modern architecture, suitable for all audiences.
The address is: Avenida Diagonal, 130.
"Gardens of the Tamarita"
As unknown as it is romantic, when you are there, you realize that it can be the perfect stage to film a Disney princess movie. They are a green lung in the neighborhood of Sant Gervasi, built by the bourgeoisie of the nineteenth century to surround their residences, somewhat remote, at that time, the great city. There is a part with sculptures, fountains (you will be struck by one surrounded by green moss), and more careful vegetation and another part more wild where the most characteristic is a tree centennial of 23 meters of height.
The address is: Pg Sant Gervasi, 47-49
"Horta's Labyrinth Park"
Without a doubt, the green park where you can get lost, as its name suggests is a labyrinth of green hedgerows, by which to walk away disconnecting from the noise and haste of the city center. They are the oldest gardens in Barcelona, dating from the eighteenth century and hide a wealth of buildings, vegetation, fountains and sculptures. During the civil war it served as a refuge for the population. The entrance costs € 3 but tell the classmates of your student residence in Barcelona, that on Wednesdays and Thursdays, they can enter for free!
The address is: Passeig dels Castanyers, 11
