It is located on the mountain of Tibidabo. The author of the project was the landscape architect Nicolau Maria Rubió i Tudurí, director of Barcelona Parks and Gardens, who conceived it as an acclimatization garden for the Barcelona International Exhibition of 1929. The design of the garden shows the influence of Spanish-Arab gardening, like other contemporary projects of the architect such as the Jardins de Laribal, which he created in collaboration with Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier. Thus, the land is structured in several terraces through which runs a water channel that flows from an upper pool, coming from a spring in the mountain. The vegetation consists mainly of Mediterranean species. The garden has a nature interpretation center. The nursery was restored in 2006.
