Jardim de Alá, Urban park between Ipanema and Leblon, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The park extends along a navigable canal linking Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas to the Atlantic Ocean, featuring docks and tree-lined paths.
The canal construction began in the 1920s under Mayor Carlos Sampaio to address water renewal and flooding issues in Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas.
Multiple monuments grace the park, including an obelisk commemorating the Battle of Riachuelo and sculptures titled Protection and Woman and Feline.
The park remains accessible throughout the day, with morning tai chi practitioners and local residents walking their dogs among almond and sibipiruna trees.
A stone slab from 1922 near the beach marks the construction period, displaying names of President Epitácio Pessoa and Engineer Saturnino de Brito.
