We visited this park several times during our visit to Barcelona. It was within an easy walk from our hotel and as keen birdwatchers we loved the birdlife in this park, quite unexpected for a city park. The whole place was lovely with a lake and plenty of walking paths, trees and flowering bushes.

A very nice park and a great place for kids and toddlers. Our two years old enjoyed running around the park, watching the animals in the lake and the kids playground.

This place is beautiful and it was crowded. I remember a lot of people wanted to take photos in front of the fountain 🤣. It’s beautiful and It’s a nice place for picnic. Free entry!

A nice park to stop by during your visit to Barcelona - there is the fountain, a lake and places to stop and sit if you wish. A nice walk around in the city. Only downside was a couple of questionable people who perhaps had taken up residence within the bush/grass area that may be intimidating to some tourists.

Quite a nice park bit far from the very city centre. We walked here all the way from La Rambla. The fountain is beautiful, the rest is OK.

A lovely park to go around for free and you enter it through the Arc De Triomf. There are really some lovely things to see in here and to wander around especially on a lovely sunny day. Which we were fortunate enough to have in early November when we visited!

The fountain is the main highlight of the park, but there is also a pond worth seeing as well. However just spending some time sitting on the grass is enough to relax! It's free so worth a visit!

Very nice aerea close to the Triumph Arch and also not far from Barceloneta Beach. The entrance is free and atmosphere is nice. Definitely check the fountain and go upstairs to have nice views from above. Very sunny.

Is it possible to have a wedding blessing here? Do you need to contact someone beforehand to be able to do this and if so, who would it be?

We saw a lot of people in groups on the grass. One was an open air gymnastics class.
Perhaps speak to the Town Hall or Mayors office. Failing that the police?

Potresti fare un bel pic-nic ... un paio d'ore ci vogliono. Se poi vuoi visitare lo zoo ... certo ci vuole più tempo.
