Monforte Gardens

Their origins go back to 1860-1870, when some of the vegetable gardens were transformed into Neoclassical-style gardens with a small palace. There are three different areas: the Parterre Viejo, old parterre, with clipped European spindle hedges and statues on pedestals; the Parterre Nuevo, new parterre, with cypress hedges and myrtle outlining the quadrants around the patio of fountains; and El Bosquete, a naturalistic garden. A rose garden and a gallery with climbing plants round out the ensemble. The abundant and exquisitely maintained statues, fountains and other features of interest make this one of the most beautiful gardens in Valencia.
