Gardens de Alfabia

Alfabia Gardens

On the road from Palma to Soller, just before the Soller tunnel, you will find this oasis of green. The gardens were built in the Arabic style and this became their main attraction, the use of water not only for irrigation but also as an additional element.

At the top of the gardens there is a pergola with 24 spouts from which water gushes out onto the paved walkway at the touch of a button. The gardens also include an accessible hacienda with old furniture and a library where you will see books dating back to the 16th century. On the cobbled patio between the main building and the entrance, you will notice a century-old plane tree, and you can also take a peek into the stables or the oil press.

By the water lily pond, you'll find a refreshment area where you can enjoy freshly squeezed juice from oranges or citrus picked from local gardens.

The gardens are closed from November until the end of February.

Admission is 7,50 eur / person, open daily from 9:30 am to 6:30 pm.

If you don't drive here, about 100 meters from the entrance is the bus stop of line 204 connecting Palma with Soller.
