Pasatempo Park

Pasatempo Park is a green space in Betanzos with numerous ponds, grottoes, sculptures, and pathways decorated with various ornamental elements throughout. The entire layout combines natural areas with artistic and architectural structures across its expansive grounds.

Brothers Juan and Jesús García Naveira, who amassed their wealth in Argentina, founded this park in 1914. They created it to share knowledge and learning with the people of Betanzos.

The park displays statues and reliefs throughout its grounds that represent scientific ideas and historical moments. These learning elements appear in the architectural details and artworks scattered around different corners.

The park is easy to reach on foot and offers wide, well-marked paths for all visitors. There are several resting areas and shaded spots to sit between the different sections.

The park contains miniature replicas of famous monuments and structures from different parts of the world. These replicas showcase significant buildings and inventions that came about in the early 1900s.
