Parque Lineal, Public park in Puebla City, Mexico
Parque Lineal is a public park in Puebla City that spreads across land alongside the Atoyac River and connects several different areas. The space offers walking paths, running tracks, exercise stations, food areas, and an elevated bridge linking sections such as the Art Garden, Metropolitan Eco Park, and Atoyac River Walk.
The park was created in the early 2010s as part of a city renewal project aimed at turning unused land along the river into a public recreation area. This project helped revive that part of the city and gave residents a new gathering place.
The space brings locals together for walking, exercising, and gathering in their free time. Art installations scattered throughout the grounds showcase works by local creators and performers.
The space is easy to walk through with wide, level paths throughout. Benches and shaded spots for resting are found all around, especially in tree-covered areas and near food vendors.
A large robotic fountain stands in the park where water displays attract people passing through regularly. Throughout the space, digital installations provide information to visitors about protecting the environment.
