Artigas Gardens, Spain

From series “Top 16 Most Unusual and Original Parks and Gardens”
In Spain, there is an amazing park called Artigas Gardens. It is located in the small town of La Pobla de Lillet and is considered one of the greatest works of Antonio Gaudi. The park is located in the incredibly picturesque natural surroundings on the banks of the Llobregat river. The green zone is equipped with very comfortable stone bridges and walking paths. A great number of sculptures in the typical style of Gaudi decorate the garden. The park has secret places too.

Artigas Gardens, Spain Thus, apart from the usual arbors and benches, the Artigas Gardens have secluded artificial caves, where it will be nice to relax away from prying eyes. The luxury garden was a gift of the great architect to the Artigas family who gave him a shelter during stay in the town of Pobla de Lillet. Those who want to take a stroll through the picturesque park, should definitely take a pair of comfortable shoes, because all the tracks in the garden are paved with cobblestones.

Despite its beauty and uniqueness, the park of Artigas is one of the lesser-known attractions of Catalonia, so it would be a delight for fans of secluded places. The garden is open on weekends and holidays. However, by reservation, travelers can visit it on weekday. It will be comfortable to get there not only for residents of the tiny Catalan village, but also for the guests from Barcelona. Pobla de Lillet is easily accessible by train.
