Formed by the esplanade starting at the old Convent of La Merced (nowadays Cuartel de Infantería), the Church of San Ildefonso and Real de Cartuja street, down to San Juan de Dios street and Canasteros street and the Gate of Elvira.
These gardens occupy the land were the old bullfighting ring was located. They were inaugurated in 1960 and the statue of the Triunfo de la Virgen (“Triumph of the Virgin Mary”) was moved here. There are wide paths downhill with the statue of the Virgin and a 75 meters long fountain with colour lights and water jets on top. In the lower gardens, on the right, there is a monument dedicated to San Juan de Dios. On the left there is a low circle fountain with water jet.
