Parque Bolívar

TIME : 2016/2/19 14:33:18

A short walk north of Plaza Libertad, the elongated Parque Bolívar is sandwiched between two avenues flanked with trees and overlooked by the handsomely imposing Supreme Court building. It’s a pleasant place for a stroll and its strongly European style is highlighted by the presence of a miniature replica of the Eiffel Tower; remarkably, it was built by the same hand as the original in 1906. Kids will like the large playground, and there's a tennis club.

The French influence is further seen in an archway that looks suspiciously like the Arc de Triomphe.
