It will last four years<\/strong> and includes a special 2-for-1 promotion<\/strong> to encourage the discovery of two of the most emblematic green spaces on the Costa Brava<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Marimurtra Botanical Garden<\/strong> (Blanes) and the Santa Clotilde Gardens<\/strong> (Lloret de Mar) presented this morning the collaboration agreement that offers a special 2-for-1 admission promotion<\/strong> to encourage joint visits to the two most emblematic green spaces of the Costa Brava<\/strong>. The event was presided over by the Mayor of Lloret, Adri\u00e0 Lamelas<\/strong>, and the trustee of the Carl Faust Foundation, Quim Valls<\/strong>. Since 2011<\/strong>, these two institutions have promoted joint promotional actions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

With this initiative, both institutions maintain their commitment to the dissemination of the natural and landscape heritage<\/strong> of the area, promoting a complete and affordable tourist experience<\/strong> for both visitors and residents.<\/p>\n

Starting this June<\/strong>, anyone who buys a ticket to visit one of the two gardens will receive the 2-for-1 promotion<\/strong> to access the other. The goal is to highlight the complementarity<\/strong> of these spaces: on one hand, the Renaissance style<\/strong> of the Santa Clotilde Gardens with spectacular views over Cala Sa Boadella<\/strong>; and on the other, the botanical richness and scientific work<\/strong> of the Marimurtra Botanical Garden with equally spectacular views over the beach of Blanes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In the words of Mayor Adri\u00e0 Lamelas:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt is a project that adds to the tourist experience<\/strong> but also goes much further, strengthening our sense of belonging<\/strong> and carrying out an important educational and awareness-raising task about the importance and value of our environment<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

For his part, the trustee of the Carl Faust Foundation, Quim Valls, emphasized:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe agreement is an example of normality<\/strong> in two ways: in the relationship between neighboring towns<\/strong> and in the link between the public and private sectors<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

About the Santa Clotilde Gardens<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Located in a privileged setting<\/strong> atop the cliffs of Lloret de Mar, these gardens, from 1919<\/strong>, are an extraordinary example of Mediterranean gardening<\/strong> inspired by the Italian Renaissance<\/strong>. They were designed in the early 20th century by Nicolau Maria Rubi\u00f3 i Tudur\u00ed<\/strong> and offer a unique combination of art, vegetation, and water<\/strong>. They are also part of the European Historic Gardens Route<\/strong> through the European Network of Historic Gardens, a recognition that highlights their heritage and cultural value<\/strong> at a European level. In 2024, they received 135,524 visitors<\/strong> and were used as a filming location for internationally renowned productions like House of the Dragon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
