Named after the 19th century Cantabrian writer Jose Maria de Pereda, the Jardines & Paseo de Pereda park in Santander is a great family friendly attraction for visitors in the area. You’ll be able to see sculptures and paintings resembling scenes from the author’s work; for example, the mountain life sculptures in bronze and stone are from his seminal works Escenas Montanesas.
Other places you can explore within the park include the Puerto Chico marina and the bayside promenade winding through the gardens. Architecture aficionados will enjoy seeing the stunning buildings with its unique architecture and glassed-in balconies.
