Parque de María Luisa in Seville, Spain, is a lush and expansive public park that serves as a green oasis in the heart of the city. Originally part of the grounds of the Palace of San Telmo, the park was donated to the city in 1893 by Princess María Luisa Fernanda de Borbón. It was redesigned for the 1929 Ibero-American Exposition by the French landscape architect Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier, incorporating elements of the Mudéjar and Moorish styles. The park features beautifully landscaped gardens, fountains, ponds, and numerous monuments, including the famous Plaza de España.
