"Un Havre de paix dans ce jardin "à la française" qui est plasticité pour les photos de mariage. Quand c'est la saison il y a un tunnel de bougainvilliers."

"The Jardí de Montfort gardens are a perfect recreation ground that soothes the spirit and are the last remaining example of nineteenth-century historical-artistic gardens in Valencia. Their origins can be traced back to an orchard that the Marquis of San Juan bought in 1849; he intended to transform it into a Romanticism-inspired garden, commissioning architect Sebastián Monleón to work on the project. The small Neo-classical style palazzo, shady bougainvillea-covered pergola, pond, beautiful rose gardens and numerous statues make it one of the most idyllic spots in the city, and it sits next to the old course of the Túria river. The loving care that is taken of its fountains and statues make the Jardí de Montfort one of the most beautiful corners of Valencia. The park covers almost 12,000 m2 and the main entrance is on Plaça de la Legió Espanyola. Originally this orchard area in Valencia’s Extramurs district was owned by José Vich, Baron of Llauri. In 1849, he sold it to Juan Bautista Romero Almenar, Marquis of San Juan, for 80,000 reales. A few years later, the Marquis purchased the stone lions that had been rejected for the staircase of the Congress of Deputies for being too small and had them placed at the entrance to the palazzo. The garden would be given its definitive name a few years later when it was inherited by Josefa Sancho, a niece of the marquis’ wife, who was married to Joaquín Monforte Parrés. It was declared a National Artistic Garden in 1941 but wasn’t refurbished and opened to the public until 1973 when it became a municipal property. The garden palazzo is the Marquis de San Juan’s old pleasure pavilion. It is a nineteenth-century French Academic-style building. It was built in 1859 by architect Sebastián Monleón and its main façade has a large balcony over one of the gardens. The palazzo is currently used for civil weddings, the only occasion on which there is direct access to the pavilion from Carrer de Montfort. There are public toilets on the ground floor."
