Park Josep Maria Serra Martí ordered depending on the slope of the land, with large sloping parterres including long runs winding ramps that create different paths and seating areas. The beds are supported by a lot of trees, most well-lined, favoring shaded, very abundant in the upper half of the park.
Calle Antonio Machado, which is installed on the weekly market of neighborhood-crosses the park from one end to the other. The part located below this street is sunniest. There is a large square -in fact, the cover of the Serra Martí Civic Centre becomes a long balcony on the Ronda de Dalt. Seen from this, the park looks like a large green meadow that rises continuously. In this area, which include palm trees, there is a lake with a fountain dedicated to Manuel de Falla, which is quite a sight, and a very comfortable: it allows the access to the park with a lift from the underground station shins.

In this park there are species of trees and palms with a special role for both the quantity and the size and location of the units, which are aligned and sorted by levels or grouped into small groves.
Near the fountain stand out more than twenty palms (Washingtonia filifera), most aligned, and a group of eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus). As we go up to the ramps between the flower beds we find alignments pepper trees (Schinus molle) of linden (Tilia x europaea) of jacarandas (Jacaranda mimosifolia) and stone pines (Pinus pinea) among other species.

As for shrubs, bushes emphasize blue jasmine (Plumbago auriculata) there are parterres delimiting the top of the park, with a beautiful bloom between May and November.
Art and Architecture
The Manuel de Falla fountain, designed by Pedro Barragan (1994) has a play of light, water and sound that makes it a magical source. It is a large rectangular platform located in a lake, also rectangular, with a longitudinal piece above which rises almost 20 meters above the tubes that act as columns. Water cascaded down from here, rises from springs and vaporises under and near the large rocks that are in the lake.
In front of the fountain on a pedestal painted concrete, stands the sculpture Alegrías Naxos Farreras Casanovas (1998). This sculpture, expressing great movement, represents a Flamenco dancer in one of his turns.
history

The park is dedicated to that he was a councilor of the City of Barcelona Josep Maria Serra i Martí.
