Parc de Can Vidalet, Metropolitan park in Esplugues de Llobregat, Spain
Parc de Can Vidalet is a 3.8-hectare park in Esplugues de Llobregat designed with geometric pathways that pass through formal gardens and natural zones. The grounds feature man-made hills, a lake, and multiple distinct areas that blend different landscape styles.
The site served as farmland for dry crops until the 1950s when industrialization reshaped the region. This transformation from agricultural land to a designed park mirrors the urban growth that swept through the area.
The park features sculptures created by local and unknown artists scattered throughout the grounds. These artworks blend naturally into the landscape and invite visitors to discover them while walking.
The park divides into four main zones: the Palace Area, the Lake Area, the Washing Place Area, and the Hill Area, making it easy to explore different sections. A network of paths connects these zones and guides visitors through a continuous route.
A network of small channels with waterfalls and fountains creates continuous water sounds throughout the park. This acoustic feature adds a soothing soundscape that distinguishes the visit from other green spaces.
