Fuentes Blancas, Public park in Burgos, Spain.
Fuentes Blancas is a park that follows the Arlanzón River with fountains, walking trails, cycling paths, and open green areas. The grounds include sections for children to play, spots for picnicking, and places to rest near the water.
The area developed as part of royal plans for the region, particularly through the transformation of the nearby Miraflores Charterhouse. This monastery grew from a former hunting lodge under a major dynasty in the 15th century.
The small chapel dedicated to Virgen de los Álamos serves as a focal point for local festivities that connect the city to its traditions. Visitors can sense how this place ties together nature and religious customs that shape community life in the region.
The park sits outside the city center and is accessible by public transport or car. Barbecue areas, playgrounds, and a swimming pool are available, and visitors can explore different sections on foot or by bicycle.
The park contains a large wetland that offers bird watchers many chances to spot different species. It also has an artificial beach along the river where people can swim and relax.
