Parque de Quijano, Public park in central Alicante, Spain.
The park contains an ornamental pond with decorative frogs, multiple walking paths, and various tree species including monkey puzzle trees and elms.
Constructed between 1855 and 1857, this park honors Trinitario González de Quijano, who served as Civil Governor during the 1854 cholera outbreak.
A central memorial obelisk surrounded by four sculptural groups stands as the focal point, representing the connection between the city and its past.
The park provides access through an iron gate and stepped entrance, offering multiple benches and shaded areas throughout its grounds.
The rehabilitated romantic grotto, previously used as a gardening storage space, was restored to its original state in 2011.
