Excellent gardens for cactus lovers, or for anyone looking for a spot of peace and quiet, especially in the winter and spring since it’s always a degree or so warmer than the city. Sometimes diesel fumes from cruise ships blowing in can make it unpleasant.
Jardins de Mossèn Costa i Llobera na jihovýchodním svahu Montjuïcu působí jako tichý botanický únik do středomořského mikroklimatu, kde se v teplejším vzduchu Barcelony daří kaktusům a sukulentům z pouští i tropů. V jedné z nejvýznamnějších evropských sbírek svého druhu (přes 800 druhů) se prochází mezi sochami a pergolou ve stínu, s jemně rámovanými výhledy na pobřeží. Je to místo pro pomalé tempo a čistou estetiku – barcelonská modernita v dialogu s přírodou.

Such a peaceful and underrated spot! The garden is full of unique cactus species and offers incredible views over the sea.

I ended up leaving around 8…
The Cactus Garden in Barcelona offers a stunning view, with its unique collection of cacti and breathtaking scenery. Unfortunately, the weather was not on my side during my visit, but despite that, the place was still beautiful and worth seeing. I definitely need to come back when the sun is shining and the weather is better to fully enjoy the experience!😍
