Parc Central, Urban park in Valencia, Spain.
Parc Central is an urban park in Valencia featuring vast green spaces with walking paths, sports facilities, and playgrounds. Native plants and gardens are distributed throughout the grounds, creating different zones for various activities.
The park opened in 2021, replacing former railway tracks that once cut through the city. This transformation converted an industrial area into a public recreational space for the community.
The park serves as a gathering place where neighbors meet and local artists regularly display their work. Concerts and festivals throughout the year bring people together and strengthen community bonds.
The park has eight entrance points located around its perimeter for easy access from different directions. Opening hours vary by season, so check ahead when planning your visit to make the most of your time.
The park's design draws inspiration from the poem 'Aigua plena de seny' by local poet Ausias March, which influenced the layout. Water channels run through the space and link different areas together, creating connections that visitors discover while walking.
