Parque D. Carlos I, Public park in Caldas da Rainha, Portugal.
Parque D. Carlos I is a spacious garden in Caldas da Rainha featuring an artificial lake, tree-lined paths, sculptures, and a central bandstand. The layout spreads across open areas, combining green spaces with cultural facilities situated near the thermal complex.
The park opened in 1892 under King Carlos I's patronage, transforming former vineyard land into gardens. It was designed originally as a recreational space for patients of the adjacent thermal facility.
The park houses museums that display Portuguese art and showcase the region's pottery tradition. Visitors can explore the local artistic heritage directly while walking through the grounds.
The park sits in central Caldas da Rainha and is easy to reach on foot. The grounds offer boat rentals, tennis facilities, and several cafes for refreshments during a visit.
The park preserves its original 19th-century design with decorative bronze statues created by Portuguese artists. The central lake is home to swans that visitors can observe while strolling through the grounds.
