This barefoot park beside the EPM building was designed by architect Felipe Uribe de Bedout as a sensory walk through sand, bamboo forest and shallow water pools and fountains. It sits in the civic district near Plaza Mayor, the Teatro Metropolitano and the EPM Interactive Museum.
Why we love it
- Walk barefoot through the water and sand zones
- Pair with the EPM Interactive Museum
- Short ride from Alpujarra and Cisneros Metro stations
Enjoy it safely
Busy civic area; visit by day and keep shoes and bags in sight while you wade.
