This park, established in the mid-19th century, boasts a manmade lake, complete with its own island. A Romanesque temple sits within the park, offering great views of the surrounding area. A suspension bridge and a grotto also add charm to the lovely greenspace. Aside from sightseeing, park activities include picnics, ice skating, scenic walks, donkey rides, and puppet shows.
