La Corchuela, Periurban park between Los Palacios y Villafranca and Dos Hermanas, Spain.

The park spans 85 hectares, featuring two small hills with holm oaks, century-old pine trees, and wild olive trees growing on low shrubland.

The land belonged to the Ramos Paúl family estate until 1966 when the Seville City Council acquired 720 hectares for public recreational purposes.

Between 1940 and 1962, the site housed a forced labor camp where political prisoners constructed the 158-kilometer Bajo Guadalquivir irrigation canal.

The park offers bicycle paths, children's playgrounds, sports areas, parking lots, water sources, barbecues, benches, and tables for visitors.

The park contains several water courses that support specific vegetation, creating habitats for rabbits, goldfinches, finches, warblers, and various reptiles.
