If you love getting lost in parks and discovering green corners with lively nature, go to this park. It's a haven for bird watchers, children, tired locals looking for a relaxing place, and also for tourists who want to get away from the busy city.

Bring your bike or roller blades, a blanket or some picnic chairs, a couple of sandwiches and a bottle of water and you're all set. You can find private little places to be alone or open areas where you see others sun-bathing. If you're lucky, you might see park rangers patrolling on white horses (i saw them during the weekend).

In my opinion, this is the best park in the city to experience some wild nature. You can walk to it from Casa da Musica/Rotunda da Boavista or, from the Matosinhos coast of the Atlantic Ocean.

near to the sea.
it´s a lovely place to take some photos and play with the kids.
nice to couples and families
