History
Parque Central is built on reclaimed railway land redeveloped into public green space in the 2010s, prioritizing native Mediterranean plantings and water-sensitive landscaping.
Conservation
The park’s plantings are chosen for low water use and biodiversity—visitors should stay on paths, avoid picking flora, and support local efforts to maintain native beds.

Bring a yoga mat
A personal mat improves comfort and hygiene during the outdoor practice; some providers may offer loaners but availability varies.
Hydrate before and after
Carry a refillable water bottle—herbal tea is provided but you’ll want plain water during yoga in warm months.
Arrive early by public transit
Nearby metro and bus stops put you a short walk from the park; arriving 10–15 minutes early avoids rushing and secures a preferred practice spot.
Do not pick plants
The tour is educational but plantings are part of a conservation-minded urban design—leave herbs in place and take only notes.

Provides a comfortable surface for poses on grass or lawn areas.
Refillable water bottle
