Location

The Jardim da Mata is located in the parish of Santo André, an integral part of the city of Estremoz. This green space is harmoniously integrated into the urban fabric, serving as a natural point of pause within the locality. Its location allows easy access for visitors to Estremoz, situated in an area that combines the daily life of the city with the serenity of a more natural environment.

A Natural Environment

This garden stands out for its predominant `forest component`, a wooded area that offers a sense of refuge and coolness. As visitors walk along its paths, they find various unobstructed areas, clearings that invite rest or a leisurely stroll. The dense presence of vegetation creates a pleasant microclimate, providing a peaceful and inviting environment for a break during the exploration of Estremoz.

Natural Stone Amphitheater

One of the most striking elements of the Jardim da Mata is its `wide area, highlighted by a stone wall`. This element, which combines natural formation with discreet intervention, lends the place the qualities of a small open-air amphitheater. Its acoustic characteristics are remarkable, making this nook particularly suitable for silent contemplation or for sharing more intimate moments of conviviality. It is a point of interest that combines the simplicity of nature with a structure that invites interaction or mere observation of the surrounding environment.
