🔷Parc Diagonal Mar🔷

The Diagonal Mar Park is a public park in Barcelona located in the new district of Diagonal Mar i el Front Marítim of the Poblenou , in the district of Sant Martí . It is named like this because it is located at the confluence of Diagonal Avenue - which crosses the city diagonally - with the Mediterranean Sea . It is the third largest urban park in the city —without counting forest parks—, and also one of the most modern. It is the work of the architects Enric Miralles and Benedetta Tagliabue , and was built between 1999 and 2002, being inaugurated on September 21 of that last year by the mayor Joan Clos.

The land that the park occupies, plus others in the surroundings, in a total of 14 ha, belonged to the metallurgical and railway material construction company MACOSA —also known as Can Girona— , of which remains the memory of the tower of the waters in which the name "Besós" appears, for having previously belonged to a water company that intended to use the waters of the Besós river , which were quickly contaminated by the waste from the numerous industries in the area.
It is a park with a modern design, in which various metallic structures similar to whimsical tubular watermarks stand out, which in the way of sculptural pieces mark the entire enclosure, and at certain points support large planters made of colored ceramics, the work of potter Antoni Cumella Vendrell. The park is divided into three areas, two smaller ones next to the coastal area, both with a small pond, and a larger one that houses a larger lake, populated by ducks , geese and water birds. A wooden bridge connects the two banks of the lake. There are several grassy hills, one of which, called Magic Mountain, it has some slides for children to descend on. The banks are shaped like sea waves, and are called lungomare , an Italian word meaning "stroll by the sea." The vegetation is made up of 51 different species of trees, among which a 150-year-old Canary dragon tree stands out . The park also includes playgrounds, soccer and basketball fields , petanque courts, and ping pong tables . On the other hand, a part of its surface was used for construction, and includes residential buildings, offices, hotels and a shopping center.
