Jardim da Estrela, Public park in Estrela district, Lisbon, Portugal
The 4.6-hectare park features winding paths, ornamental ponds, sculptures, iron gates, and numerous exotic trees surrounding a central green bandstand.
The garden, inaugurated in 1852, emerged from a municipal initiative to create recreational spaces for Lisbon residents during the industrial transformation.
The iron bandstand hosts musical performances throughout summer, while a monthly craft market displays Portuguese artisanal creations each first weekend.
Located opposite the Basilica da Estrela, the garden opens daily from 7 AM to midnight, with access through tram lines 25 and 28.
For seven decades until the mid-20th century, the garden maintained a caged lion as an attraction, a practice now replaced by duck ponds.
