Parque Sólon de Lucena, Urban park in João Pessoa, Brazil
The park features a central lagoon surrounded by imperial palm trees, with gardens designed by Roberto Burle Marx and native Atlantic Forest vegetation.
Originally a Jesuit property known as Lagoa dos Irerês, the area was transformed into a public park in 1922 under Governor Solon de Lucena's administration.
The Institute of Historical and Artistic Heritage of Paraíba designated this park as a protected site in 1980, preserving its environmental and social importance.
Located in downtown João Pessoa, the park contains walking paths, seating areas, and a modern fountain that serves as a meeting point.
The park maintains its original lagoon from the colonial period, encircled by imperial palms and decorated with bamboo groves and pau-d'arco trees.
