Clean and well cared green area

If the Temple of Debod is often unknown to the visitors of Madrid, its neighboring area is even less known, but the Parque del Oeste (West Park) is a lovely and a surprising green area right in the city.

It is the ideal place where you can find whatever you want. I was surprised at how clean and well cared for it was, no trash or empty bottle to be found, something one is grateful for. What we did find everywhere was statues dedicated to various people like Simón Bolívar, Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz or Miguel Hidalgo.

Another peculiar detail is the relief made on the ground, representing a map of the Iberian Peninsula, you can distinguish (although barely) the silhouette of the peninsula, with the main rivers and mountains, the imposing Pyrenees in the Northern area of the representation. It gives the impression that in the beginning, the area corresponding to the sea was covered with water; the relief is in quite bad condition.


Walking through the park we could also enjoy a Botanical Path, a splendid Rose Garden, a Bird Center and even the terminal of the cable railway of Madrid, located in Paseo Pintor Rosales. Another access to the park is the one at Moncloa station (subway, trains and buses).

To finish with, a detail that particularly struck me: from 11 pm on Friday to 6 am on Monday, the park is open only to pedestrians and bikers, so that during the week the paths belong to cars and on weekends and holidays it turns into a safe place to bike or play football.
