Parc del Laberint d’Horta ist eine Empfehlung im kuratierten Guide des Almanac Barcelona.
Im stillen Horta, an den Hängen der Collserola, entfaltet der Parc del Laberint d’Horta eine seltene, aristokratische Gartenkultur: ein neoklassisches Ensemble voller mythologischer Anspielungen, das in einen späteren romantischen, schattig-verträumten Teil übergeht. Herzstück ist das Zypressenlabyrinth von 1792 – 750 Meter grüne Geometrie, die mit Diana im Zentrum und feinen Details wie Amor mit gespanntem Bogen einen spielerisch-intellektuellen Spaziergang ermöglicht. Wer Barcelona jenseits der Boulevards sucht, findet hier eine stille, kultivierte Form von Wellbeing: Wasser, Skulpturen und Terrassen als entschleunigter Gegenentwurf zur Stadt.
I love this place. It's a wonderful break from the busyness of Barcelona. I visited 2 years ago and my only disappointment this visit was that they are in process of rebuilding the labyrinth. Despite the proximity of its neighbors it's still very tranquil and relaxing. I highly recommend it if you need a break.
The park is good overall but the specific area is under construction. Also a good picnic spot with benches and tables . A little playground with slides for kids. If you are coming on car Parking is available. With the price of tickets worth it. Palau del marqués d'Alfarras is also along the park it's free but only open on Wednesday and Sunday. You need to take an online appointment before visiting. I hope it…

I do have to say we thought there was a maze and waterfall but the maze is being renovated and the waterfall has dried up as there has been a drought for a long time now but worse in recent months :( Apart…
