It is the mountain of Montjuïc, and was created in 1999 to be the main botanical garden in the city, since the previous, known ever since as historical and Botanical Garden was small in size. The authors of the project were Carlos Ferrater, Artur Bossy, Joan Pedrola and Bet Figueras. This garden was dedicated to Mediterranean plant species from all over the world, grouped into five areas phytogeographical: California, Chile, Australia and South Africa, as well as the Mediterranean. There are also some species homoclimàtiques, from China and Japan. In total cataloged some 7,000 species, grouped in triangular platforms arranged in terraces to save the unevenness of the terrain. The garden also has nursery areas, as well as a botanical laboratory, an auditorium, a library and a bar-restaurant.
