Located on Avenida dos Combatentes da Grande Guerra, this garden is a peaceful space right in the heart of the town, ideal for a break during a walk.
Small and welcoming, the garden offers a calm environment with natural shade provided by mature trees, ideal for resting or reading a book.
Highlights include a small chapel in homage to Saint John, built as a replica of a traditional chapel. It is a curious and symbolic element that marks the identity of the place.
Benches distributed throughout the garden allow for moments of rest and socializing. Frequented by locals, it is a good spot to observe the daily life of the town.
It includes a small stone fountain that adds charm to the space, evoking the tradition of Portuguese public gardens.
Close to public transport stops and with parking in the area, it is easily accessible for those passing through.
Not being a tourist garden in the classic sense, it well conveys the simple and genuine life of the town, offering a more local and authentic experience.
