HORTA LABYRINTH PARK

This park is home to the oldest garden in the city and is an example of the neoclassical gardens of the 18th century, with a touch of Italian physiognomy. Its name comes from the labyrinth of cypress bushes that is located at the lower part of the park.


It is possibly the most beautiful park in Barcelona. The gardens, the structure and the architecture make it the perfect place to lose oneself. Next to the famous labyrinth, the park has other small delights: views, places for reflection or for rest. Here we can find the Boxwood gardens, with their topiary art (figures); the Domèstic, which has a planting of camellias; the Molses (mosses); the Petit Laberint (small labyrinth); and the Romàntic, which, interestingly enough, closes its area with a false cemetery. Also worth noting is the romantic channel, at the end of which is the "Illa de l'Amor" (Island of Love).


The Parc del Laberint is laid out on three levels, or stepped terraces. On the top level is a reservoir that collects the water used to water the gardens. On the middle level are the temples with cupolas supported by Tuscan columns. And on the lower level is the labyrinth, the focal point of the park.
