Parque del Oeste
Streams, statues and even an Egyptian temple
Extending from Plaza de España out towards Moncloa and the university campus, the Parque del Oeste is one of the city's most attractive open spaces.
On the fringes of the park on Paseo del Pintor Rosales are a string of pleasant terrace bars while within the park are shady walks, a stream and a delightful rose garden.
The most famous landmark in the park is the Templo de Debod, an Egyptian temple transported and rebuilt from its original location as a mark of gratitude for Spain's help with the construction of the Aswan Dam.
