Jardim do Torel, Garden in Santo António district, Lisbon, Portugal.
Jardim do Torel is a park in Lisbon arranged on multiple levels across a hillside and connected by winding paths. The site includes wooden benches, decorative lampposts, a decorative pond with statues, and a children's play area.
A wealthy man had a palace built on this property in the late 1800s. The property was transferred to Lisbon's city government in 1927 and later converted into a public park.
The garden is named after a former resident and serves as a place where neighbors gather and spend time together. Its different areas encourage walks and create a social space within the city.
The garden is located near Campo dos Mártires da Pátria and is open to visitors from early morning until evening. The paths are easy to navigate, but the terrain has slopes, so wear good shoes for comfortable walking.
The garden rises about 33 meters in elevation from its lowest to highest point. From the top, you can enjoy a view across the western part of Lisbon toward the São Pedro de Alcântara church.
