CASE STUDY 2 TURIA GARDENS The Turia Garden is one of its kind. It is the largest urban parks in Spain which is 9 kilometres of pure green spaces, cafes, many species of plants, pathways, and much more. It is a garden that is never closed so this allows for the public to talk long night walks. From a huge flood in 1957 this area had been known as a flood prone area. Valencia decided to divert the river and the soil had given life to an amazing garden.
