Turian gardens

In the center of Valencia is one of the largest urban parks in all of Europe, which stretches for almost nine kilometers all the way to the City of Arts and Sciences, which is practically on the coast. A huge green space was established on the site of the old riverbed of the Turia River after the decision was made to relocate the river due to severe flooding in 1957. The city sank under water, and all necessary measures were taken to avoid a possible repetition of the disaster. After the plan was approved and all the necessary work was carried out, a park appeared on the site of the former river in 1986. There are many plants and trees that represent the local garden, giving its guests harmony and aesthetic pleasure. You will have the opportunity to walk under all 18 bridges that connect the banks of the former river, by the way, some of them date back to the 15th-16th centuries.

The vegetation of the park is well thought out and divided into several parts. In addition, the park has quite a decent infrastructure: numerous fountains, hiking trails, bike paths, recreation and sports areas and, of course, the Gulliver Children's Park.
