The Central Park of Póvoa de Santo Adrião is integrated into the urban area of Barruncho, a part of the locality of Póvoa de Santo Adrião, belonging to the municipality of Odivelas. Its presence on Rua Doutor Francisco Sá Carneiro makes it an easily accessible point within the parish's urban fabric, offering a refuge of tranquility in the local daily life.
Inaugurated in 1998, this park was designed to be a green lung in Póvoa de Santo Adrião, occupying an area of approximately 13,000 square meters. Its creation aimed to provide a quality space for the community's enjoyment, proving to be an ideal location for those seeking a moment of relaxation or a simple outdoor stroll. The park's size allows for a sense of spaciousness, even though it is situated within an urban environment.
The Central Park is crossed by several pedestrian paths that invite quiet walks, lined with trees that offer coolness and an inviting atmosphere. The landscape is dominated by extensive lawns, suitable for rest and contemplation of nature. For younger visitors, there is a dedicated space for fun, with a children's play area. Additionally, the park features a specific area for playing chinquilho, a traditional game that reflects local culture and offers an opportunity for interaction.
