Parco del Sole, Urban park in Collemaggio district, L'Aquila, Italy
The park extends across four hectares divided into three sections including a playground area, performance space, and fitness facilities for outdoor activities.
The park underwent substantial restoration between 2016 and 2018 following the 2009 earthquake that affected the L'Aquila region and surrounding areas.
The park contains the Amphisculpture, an open-air theater designed by Beverly Pepper that accommodates 1800 seats using materials from local quarries.
A tactile map with QR codes at the main entrance on Piazzale di Collemaggio helps visitors with sensory disabilities navigate through the park.
During winter months, the stage area of the Amphisculpture transforms into an ice-skating rink, providing recreational activities throughout all seasons.
