Es una maravilla recorrer este parque circular de 4 Km que rodea la muralla de la ciudad. Hay varios puntos en el suelo que indican dónde estaban las antiguas puertas de la ciudad. También hay esculturas como la de los matemáticos y el pintor nacional. En verano crean una sombra muy agradable sus castaños.
Cinturón verde que rodea todo el casco histórico, un pulmón para la ciudad. Es muy relajante y hemos paseado por él de madrugada y por la noche sin tener sensación de inseguridad. Por la noche duermen en los bancos algunos indigentes (supongo que cuando todavía no aprieta el frío). No es muy frondoso, la calle por donde pasan coches, buses y tranvías siempre está a menos de 100m del camino principal.
Fuimos en primavera, es muy hermoso ver como va floreciendo todo y creciendo el pasto nuevamente. Todo muy verde, limpio, y cuidado. Lo único malo es que mientras caminas tenes que cuidar que no pasen bicicletas o el camión de mantenimiento. Las flores se ven extraordinarias, demasiado hermosas para esta temporada
