Gardens have always been an ideal place to contemplate and enjoy when the high temperatures make an appearance. Finestrat has one of the most beautiful urban parks in the Marina Baixa. The Font de Carrè is now 20 years old and the vegetation has reached the necessary splendour to make it the ideal place to have a good time without the excesses of the heat. The pleasure of walking, reading or talking, in the middle of trees and water, is one of the best ways to spend the torrid afternoons of this incipient summer.

Of course, visiting the Font de Carrè park is a good way to end the sightseeing tour of the old town of the municipality. The contemplation of gardens has always been an attraction for travelers looking to find the harmony of nature in the midst of the cities they visit. Walking among large trees such as oaks, holm oaks, mulberry trees and other more exotic ones such as the erythrina crista-gali or the charisa speciosa is always healthy and a spectacle for the senses when they are in full bloom.

Water is the other great element of this beautiful garden. At its highest point there is a small pond in which a large hand stands. This sculpture by Pepe Azorín from Alicante is in the shape of a bowl that simulates drinking. This is the starting point of a stream that crosses the park from north to south, with its waterfalls, wooden bridges and the sound of water, which is a constant that accompanies the visitor, who is enveloped by the citrus aromas of the bushes that surround the old farmhouse. today converted into the Finestrat Museum, which houses the permanent collection of archaeology and ethnology.
