Agua Azul Park is one of Guadalajara’s oldest and most emblematic parks, inaugurated in 1952. For decades, it has been an essential green lung for the city and a space for recreation and family gatherings. Its name refers to the waters of the San Juan de Dios River that run through it.

The best time to visit Agua Azul Park is early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the strongest sun, especially from March to June. During autumn and winter (October to February), the weather is milder and more pleasant for walking outdoors.
