Summary
Located next to the Tabakalera building, very close to the North Station, with its 94.960 square meters, Cristina Enea is the perfect place to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city without leaving it.
The exoticism of its trees, the romanticism provided by the swans and peacocks that inhabit it, the architecture of its central building ... all remind us that this park was an oasis of peace, a gift that the Duke of Mandas made to his woman. The design of the park was carried out by Pierre Ducasse, author of the Miramar Palace garden and the Plaza de Gipuzkoa.
