The Jardim da Alameda do Senhor da Pedra is located in Miramar, a coastal town in the municipality of Vila Nova de Gaia. Situated in an urban area, this green space benefits from its proximity to the Atlantic, allowing the sea breeze to be felt while enjoying a more secluded environment. Its location on Alameda do Senhor da Pedra provides a clear landmark in the Miramar area.
This garden stands out for its generous expanse, harmoniously integrating lawn areas, natural dunes, and dense vegetation. Large trees offer inviting shade on sunny days, while flower beds add splashes of color to the surroundings. Paved paths invite tranquil strolls, providing a serene and natural retreat for those seeking a moment of relaxation, away from daily hustle and bustle.
Beyond its scenic beauty, the Jardim da Alameda do Senhor da Pedra is equipped for various forms of leisure. It features a synthetic-turf football and basketball court, suitable for sports practice. For the little ones, there is a playground with colorful wooden equipment and a synthetic surface, ensuring safety and fun. The space also includes a small amphitheater, ideal for gatherings or more informal events, and various resting areas with benches, inviting visitors to linger and observe the surroundings.
The garden experience is enhanced by the presence of four fountains with jets, which add a distinct auditory and visual element to the environment. These water features complement the design of the space, lending it a touch of freshness and dynamism. The integration of dune areas, along with the lawn and more landscaped zones, creates an interesting transition between the urbanized and the natural, reflecting the proximity of Miramar's coastal landscape.
