Parque González Hontoria

The expansive grounds feature diverse plant species, including oriental planes, ficus trees, and Senegal palms across two distinct garden sections: Los Jardines de la Rosaleda and Los Jardines de El Bosque.

Mayor Julio González Hontoria established the park in 1902 on former vineyard land, initially creating two main axes: Avenida de las Palmeras and Calle Real.

The park serves as the primary venue for the Feria del Caballo, a prestigious equestrian festival held each May that draws visitors from across Spain.

Located on Avenida Alcalde Álvaro Domecq, the park includes a restaurant and numerous facilities for outdoor activities and family gatherings throughout the year.

In 1898, before its official designation, one thousand children from fourteen local schools planted 500 oriental plane trees during the First Tree Festival.
