Any decent city will have a sizable amount of green space. Nothing quite so unpleasant as long, dusty walks in the heat without a tree for shade or pleasant lawn for picnicking.
Guadalajara, on the whole, does pretty well in this regard. Parks large and small dot the landscape. One of these is Parque Metropolitano.
I have to say - not what I was expecting. The park feels more reminiscent of the African Veldt than a lush greenscape. Large barren patches free of grass are broken up by large shade trees.
There's no denying the trees are impressive, But there's just not enough verdure and shade for my taste.
