Nestled within the sprawling Jardín del Turia (Turia Gardens) at Jardín del Turia, s/n, Camins al Grau, 46023 Valencia, Spain, Gulliver Park offers a giant-sized playground unlike any other. Based on my visit a year ago, Gulliver Park is a fantastic spot for children of all ages to unleash their inner explorers, with its recently renovated structures and playful atmosphere, earning it a perfect 5 out of 5 star rating. In this review, we’ll delve into the reasons why Gulliver Park should be your next family outing destination in Valencia.
A Playground Fit for a Giant
Gulliver Park takes inspiration from the classic children’s novel “Gulliver’s Travels.” The star attraction is a massive Gulliver statue, depicting the character lying on his back. However, this isn’t your ordinary statue! Gulliver’s body transforms into a playful wonderland with slides, climbing nets, and ropes, all designed for children to climb, crawl, and explore. Imagine scaling Gulliver’s giant legs, sliding down his enormous shirt, or swinging from his oversized arms. The possibilities for imaginative play are endless!

While the larger-than-life structures cater perfectly to children, Gulliver Park offers something for everyone. Parents can relax on nearby benches and supervise their little ones while enjoying the fresh air and sunshine. The park also features additional play areas suitable for younger children, ensuring a fun-filled experience for the whole family.
