Edward VII Park

Edward VII Park, known locally as Parque Eduardo VII, is a significant green space in Lisbon, Portugal, named in honor of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, who visited Lisbon in 1903 to reaffirm the Anglo-Portuguese Alliance. The park occupies a prominent position near the Marquês de Pombal Square and was originally designed in the early 20th century by the French landscaper João Carlos Serpa. It spans approximately 26 hectares and offers panoramic views of the city and the Tagus River. The park's design reflects both classical and modernist influences, featuring formal gardens, geometric pathways, water features, and a diverse array of flora including exotic trees and shrubs. Over the years, Edward VII Park has served as a venue for cultural events, concerts, and festivals, attracting locals and tourists alike. Its central location and historical significance as a symbol of friendship between Portugal and the United Kingdom make it a beloved urban oasis and a testament to Lisbon's commitment to preserving and enhancing its green spaces.
