Paul Parent
★★★★★2 months agoThe Jardins del Clot de la Mel are a pleasant neighborhood park in the Clot area of Barcelona, designed as a green space that preserves a bit of the district’s industrial past. They sit on a full city block in Sant Martí, and one of their most distinctive features is a tall old factory chimney, which has been kept as a reminder of the area’s former flour and textile industries. The layout is quite geometric, divided into four equal sections with tree-lined paths and shaded areas, giving it a structured but calm atmosphere.
Germán Algarra Pujante
★★★★★5 years agoParque muy amplio con muchas zonas para diversas actividades. Grandiosos árboles y zona de paso de todas las calles adyacentes. Muy recomendable especialmente para los niños ya que hay tres zonas diferenciadas. Un buen parque con mucha sombra. Muy recomendable.
