Jardín de Monforte, Neoclassical garden in Exposició district, Valencia, Spain
The Monforte Garden spans 12,000 square meters with marble statues, ponds, fountains, and meticulously maintained hedges arranged in geometric patterns.
Juan Bautista Romero acquired the land in 1849 and commissioned architect Sebastián Monleón Estellés to design this garden, which later passed to the Monforte family.
The garden demonstrates the combination of neoclassical and romantic design principles through its structured geometric section and naturalistic landscape areas.
Located at Plaza de la Legion Española, the garden opens from 10:30 AM to 6:00 PM in autumn/winter and extends until 8:00 PM in spring/summer.
White stone lions guard the entrance, originally crafted by José Bellver for the Spanish parliament but deemed insufficient in size for that location.
