Green Barcelona
Nature is also a key element of the city. Parks and gardens are our urban green spaces, and allow you to switch off, breathe in some fresh air, and recharge your batteries. In these outdoor spaces you can play sports, get together with friends, and enjoy family time. In these small oases of vegetation, water and wildlife you can forget the stresses and strains of everyday life and let your soul be soothed by the tranquility.
