The Parc Samà was built in 1881 coinciding with the cultural movement of romanticism, a new way of seeing the world where feelings prevailed over reason. This movement also came to gardening, so romantic gardens were designed with the premise of breaking with the rigidity and structure of the French garden and returning to nature, showing a desire often excessive for the wild and the exotic.
Parc Samà is said to be a paradise on earth. You’ll see why as you cross hanging bridges, pass exotic statues, lush foliage, and picturesque ponds.
You’ll see animals roaming freely, from fallow deer to blue and yellow macaws. Kids will love getting lost in the vegetable maze, a magical place designed to encourage sustainability!
