Parque del Oeste, Urban park in Carretera de Cádiz district, Málaga, Spain.
Parque del Oeste is a large green space in Málaga featuring artificial lakes, extensive tree coverage, and flower beds bordering the walking paths. The area also includes sports facilities and rest areas distributed throughout.
The park was created in the 1990s as part of a city initiative to add green space to western Málaga. It replaced an area that previously housed summer cinemas in this location.
The park features sculptures by a German artist scattered throughout, depicting fantasy scenes and local folklore characters. These works add unexpected artistic moments to a casual walk through the green space.
The park opens daily at 8 AM with closing times varying by season between 10 PM and 1 AM. Visitors will find a mix of paved paths and natural ground areas, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended for the full experience.
An underpass near the lakes plays classical music, a detail many visitors miss while exploring the grounds. This hidden musical element creates an unexpected sensory surprise within the natural landscape.
