Parque Solon de Lucena
Parque Sólon de Lucena (Lagoa)
A circular lake park in the city center, ringed by royal palms, and a symbol of the city and a leisure spot for residents.
Locals often call it "Lagoa" (the Lake). It is a round natural lake in the city center, surrounded by tall royal palms. Landscape designer Burle Marx took part in its design and renovation. After its 2016 renovation, it gained walking paths, an open-air theater and food stalls. During the day, you can stroll around the lake and take photos. Weekends often bring events. The old town's upper district is a 10-minute walk from here. Nearby is a bus hub, so the area is crowded and busy. Be careful of your safety at night.
