📖

Full description

Parc de la Pegaso takes its name from the Pegaso vehicle factory that once stood on this site in Sant Andreu, transformed into a green retreat with winding canals, ponds, and bamboo groves that give it an almost tropical feel. Playgrounds and open lawns make it popular with local families, while its relative distance from the tourist trail keeps crowds light and its hidden-gem reputation intact.

With a 4.3 rating built on thousands of reviews, it's become a genuine neighborhood favorite rather than a stop on the sightseeing circuit.
