Jardines del Parque de O Castro
The park of O Castro is a botanical garden located in the centre of the city. It has several large exotic species with important ornamental value. The top of the hill was a Celtic hillfort settlement from the 3rd to the 1st centuries BCE, and every winter the camellias oversee the ships at the mouth of the estuary from among the remains.
