Touring the most representative monuments and sculptures of European countries is not affordable for all pockets, but in Torrejón de Ardoz there is a free park where you can visit more than twenty replicas of the most representative squares, sculptures and monuments of the European continent.

alt

The Europa Park is a park of more than 190,000 square meters where you can start your visit by the Puerta de Alcalá in Madrid...

alt

... and in a few meters you will find a garden of yellow and red roses which is the prelude to find yourself in Belgium with the Atomium and the Manaken Piss a few meters away.

alt

alt

The sheer number of Europe's illustrious monuments is overwhelming, although some of them like this Eiffel Tower could be better built. Since the top doesn't look too much like it.

alt

However, other places in Europe such as the Trevi Fountain have a great resemblance, although of a smaller size.

alt

One of the things I liked the most about my visit to this park are the green areas where the city workers have carefully built a series of elephants by constantly and carefully pruning bushes that engulf an internal structure.

alt

When it is hot, in the summer months it is very pleasant to visit this park in the areas near the waterfall and the pond where an old Viking ship appears sunken.

alt

alt

But undoubtedly, the best way to cool off is to walk near the Little Mermaid of Copenhagen along the pond that leads to London Bridge.

alt

From this bridge we can see the Brandenburg Gate in the background, an important European gate that reminds us that not many years ago there was a wall that divided Europeans.

alt

alt

Fortunately, those dividing ideas in Europe were blown away by the wind in 1989. The same wind that moves the blades of these replicas of the windmills of Kinderdijk in Holland.

alt

Touring the park you can enjoy seeing a multitude of places for children to have fun as this locomotive that runs through a part of the park.

And walking the paths of the park I arrived at a place of which I feel devotion as is the Bethlehem Tower of Lisbon where the reflection of the same on the water captivated me.

alt

Just as I was captivated by the beauty of the flowers in a rose farm in the middle of the park.

alt

alt

alt

Undoubtedly, a place to visit almost all of Europe and that encourages me more and more to save for someday visit all these places.

Best regards.
