Jardim Amália Rodrigues, Urban park in Avenidas Novas district, Lisbon, Portugal
Jardim Amália Rodrigues is an urban park in the Avenidas Novas district situated on a hillside with multiple levels, a central lake, and paved pathways. The grounds feature a stone amphitheater structure and landscaped areas that step down the slope.
The park was established in the 1990s and received its name as a tribute to a Portuguese artist. Its design incorporated the hillside location and took advantage of natural water features.
The garden bears the name of a celebrated fado singer and displays two artworks by different sculptors that visitors encounter while walking through the space. These pieces contribute to the overall character of the grounds.
The grounds are accessible by foot from nearby metro stations and have multiple entrances distributed around the hillside. A café by the lake provides a good spot to rest while exploring the park.
The park forms part of a green corridor connecting different green spaces across the city while offering views of recognizable urban landmarks. This role makes it an important waypoint for those exploring the city's green areas on foot.
