With various levels to these expansive gardens and plenty of steps and paths for walking, every corner is unique, with sculptures, fountains, cypress trees and a lovely pergola. Located on Montjuïc, the gardens were designed by Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier and Nicolau Maria Rubió, for the 1929 Universal Exposition. The upper part of today’s gardens once belonged to the estate of Josep Laribal, a prestigious lawyer whose name lives on with the gardens. The City Council acquired the estate in 1908 and founded a school there, the Escola del Bosc. Studies were also begun to develop and landscape Montjuïc, a comprehensive project initially entrusted to Josep Amargós. The Jardins de Laribal were completed in 1922. #sundaysites #spainsundays #igbarcelona #igspain #traveladventures #july2019 #jardinsdelaribal #barcelonaspain #gardens #cityviews (at Jardines de Laribal) https://www.instagram.com/p/B86jVbJh5De/?igshid=1isbkvsl0sj2e
