Location:

The Prior Velho Urban Park is located within the Santo António neighborhood, in the locality of Prior Velho, which in turn is part of the municipality of Loures. Its presence in the heart of an urbanized area gives it the role of an important green space, contributing to the local quality of life and offering an escape from the city's dynamic.

It is conveniently located within the neighborhood, allowing residents and visitors to easily find a natural environment even in an urban context.

A Consolidated Green Space:

Inaugurated in 2004, the Prior Velho Urban Park was designed with the intention of consolidating the site and its identity through well-defined landscape, architectural, and environmental objectives. With an area of approximately five hectares, this park was conceived to be a green lung that harmoniously integrates into the surrounding urban fabric.

Over the two decades since its creation, the park's internal structure has remained stable, reflecting the success of its original purposes. It is an example of how nature can be carefully integrated and maintained in a city environment.

Aesthetics and Comfort:

The design of Prior Velho Urban Park prioritizes the creation of a serene and functional environment. Its green spaces are regularly maintained, ensuring an inviting atmosphere for enjoyment. Well-defined paths invite leisurely walks, while the grassy areas provide spots for a break or relaxed leisure moments.

For visitors' comfort, outdoor benches are placed at various points throughout the park, allowing for rest and contemplation of the landscape. This attention to detail reflects the commitment to offering a well-cared-for and pleasant space to all who visit.
