I walked all the way up to find these gardens without really knowing what to expect, but I absolutely loved them! It's said that poet Frederico García Lorca spent quite a bit of time here. There's a grand house surrounded by multiple gardens and fountains. 🌴⛲️🍊It's a rather peaceful spot with overlooks of the city and surprises around every corner. There are plaques displaying local Spanish poetry throughout, and I even found a gang of peacocks wandering around! Definitely plan to spend a lot of time here. Update: there is also a hidden lake with a mini castle on an island in the middle, as well as ducks... 🦆
