Jardines de la Plaza de la Reina
Description
The Jardines de la Plaza de la Reina is a public park in the heart of Palma, bringing together flower beds, shady trees, low seating walls and a fountain into a well-kept city garden.
A Green Oasis in the City Centre
Fountains, plants, flowers and shade-giving trees define the character of the Jardines de la Plaza de la Reina. The gentle breeze off the water makes a visit comfortable even on the hottest days, and the low seating walls always offer a spot to sit and unwind. The gardens are well maintained and kept impressively clean.
Location & Getting There
The gardens sit at Av. d'Antoni Maura 2 in the Centre district, 07012 Palma. They mark the transition between the old town and the waterfront, and are right on the doorstep of the Cathedral and the Almudaina Palace. The square is a key transport hub, with bus stops just a short walk away.
Sculpture & History
At the heart of the gardens stands a monument honouring the poet Joan Alcover, erected in 1928. The square still carries a name that speaks to its royal past.
Christmas Atmosphere
Come the festive season, the square is transformed by seasonal lighting and decorations into a truly magical spot — an evening stroll here at Christmas is an experience not easily forgotten.
