Location

The Alves Redol Garden is serenely situated in the locality of Glória do Ribatejo, a community that is part of the municipality of Salvaterra de Magos, within the vast and characteristic district of Santarém. This positioning grants it a natural integration into the typical Ribatejo landscape, marked by its open horizons and strong connection to agricultural activity.

Located in the heart of the locality, the garden offers a point of quietude and a green refuge, where the rural ambiance blends with local life, providing an accessible and inviting space for those seeking a moment of tranquility.

Homage and Cultural Identity

This green space is a tribute to Alves Redol, a prominent figure in Portuguese literature and one of the exponents of Neo-Realism. Redol's work is deeply rooted in the Ribatejo region, masterfully depicting the life, challenges, and landscapes of the people of the lezíria.

Thus, the garden is not just a place of rest, but also a symbol of the community's connection to the memory and legacy of a writer who so well mirrored the Ribatejan soul. Its designation marks an important connection between local culture and national literary identity.

An Oasis of Serenity

Designed to provide an environment for leisure and contemplation, the Alves Redol Garden invites its visitors to enjoy a moment of pause in their daily lives. With its well-tended vegetation, it offers shaded areas and nooks that encourage rest and enjoyment of the surrounding nature.

It is a space where one can appreciate the surrounding calm, ideal for a peaceful stroll or simply to sit and absorb the peaceful atmosphere that characterizes it. The simplicity of its elements invites relaxation, reflecting the soothing essence of a public garden.
