El Vivero Parque - Bailén
This park, of extraordinary botanical richness, is popularly known as “El Vivero” and was constructed between 1893 and 1895, at which time Don Eduardo Carvajal was Mayor of Bailén, from whom the park inherited its name. Inside there is a wide floral and arboreal variety such as the three-thorn acacia, the tree of love, rose bushes, American cane, cypress, wallflower, cineraria, sage and rosemary. There is also a charming little house used as the residence of the gardener and their family since 1914. Don Salvador Merlo, who lived in the grounds with his wife Doña Olaya Tamargo and their seven children, is credited with planting many of the species visible in the park today.
