Ferrera Park also known as the park of the Marquise (of Ferrera) it is a real jewel and an amazing park. It was part of the palace of the Marquise of Ferrera (currently a Hotel) and it was opened to the public in 1976 after being purchased by the Council of Aviles. It has 5 entries and it closes at 11pm. The park has a trail for exercise very popular, a pond very popular with seagulls, specially during rainy days and a zone for kids. The park deserves better maintenance though as you can see for the old posts, bins... It seems a lot of trees have been lost due to storms and not sure if they have ever been replaced. There is a fountain from 1887. It is an amazing space with a lot of potential if it was managed a bit better.

Dit park ligt achter het palacio hotel.prachtig om even rustig door te wandelen. (Translated by Google) This park is located behind the palacio hotel. wonderful for a quiet walk.

Excellent park that's free to enter. Nice little pond in the middle eith ducks and geese. Lots of fixtures for the kids to play on, and even access to a garden area with lots of pretty flowers & fountains. Multiple access points makes it really easy to navigate, and branch off exploring another part of the city.

Great park with a lot of trees. There should be toilets too.

Nice park in the center of Avelis. It has a small lake with beautiful birds. There is a nice area for children to play as well. Worth a stop to relax and enjoy the nature.

Beautiful park in downtown Aviles. Good for a stop if you are visiting with kids or looking for a place to do some exercise.

Nice park

Clean, highly recommended park to rest, to play, whatever....nice

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful and important cemetery, the third in Spain in terms of the magnificent constructions of some family pantheons and in which many other people who did not have the means to build these spectacular pantheons for the life of their lives lie eternally in other tombs and niches. 'afterlife'. Some like me have dear relatives here buried in more ordinary places. Others are remembered on a commemorative stone for having been shot during the civil war. Respect and a prayer for all your souls.

Respeto y una oración para todas sus almas.

It consists of a front from which six human heads emerge that flow the water towards a rectangular basin that adopts an oval shape in its center.

Its fantastic acoustics allowed us to enjoy the zarzuela and its songs as if we were on the same stage!!! 😍 (Original) Un viaje a otro tiempo donde los palcos se llenaban con trajes de época y personas sentadas en los palcos como en las películas!!! El ambiente y el color te invitan a disfrutar de todo lo que pasa en el escenario haciendo que te sientas integrado!!! Su fantástica acústica nos permitió disfrutar de la zarzuela y sus canciones como si estuviéramos en el mismo escenario!!! 😍

(Translated by Google) Excellent theater, the most charming you can find, the decoration, the stalls, etc.... for me it has the peculiarity of feeling like fifty years ago. The programming is not bad at all, you can see concerts, various shows and of course, plays. The seats may not be as comfortable as in other more up-to-date places, but it is compensated by the charm and "vintage" atmosphere that is breathed there. In my opinion the sound at concerts is excellent, all the ones I have seen sounded perfect. Recommendable!!! (Original) Excelente teatro, de lo más coqueto que te puedes encontrar, la decoración, el patio de butacas etcétera... para mí tiene la particularidad de sentirme como cincuenta años más atrás. La programación no está nada mal, se pueden ver conciertos, espectáculos varios y como no, obras de teatro. Las butacas quizás no sean tan cómodas como en otros sitios más actualizados pero se compensa con el encanto y el ambiente "vintage" que en él se respira. En mi opinión el sonido en los conciertos es excelente todos los que he visto sonaban perfectos. Recomendable!!!

(Translated by Google) The theater is spectacular. The seats in the general area are quite uncomfortable because they are not seats but the view is quite good even from above.

(Translated by Google) This Friday, December 15, I went to see the show: The Great Acrobatic Circus of China and everything was going well until the show ended and the actors came out to receive applause from the audience. At that moment, I decided to record the cast (once the show had finished) and suddenly I began to notice that they repeatedly and forcefully and abruptly pulled the hood of my sweatshirt. Please hire more professional ushers because those ways of treating customers are not even normal. As easy as getting down to my level and telling me that recording was prohibited and that was it. I don't have to suffer shaking or pushing from anyone, least of all from your staff. Honestly, a shame. I hope they give the corresponding punishment or punishment to that unprofessional usher who on Friday was in charge of the top floor (general or chicken coop). Such nonsense had never happened to me and look, I have gone there countless times. A nonsense. (Original) Este viernes 15 de diciembre acudí a ver el espectáculo: El gran circo acrobático de China y todo iba bien hasta que termina el espectáculo y salieron los actores a recibir los aplausos del público. En ese momento, decidí grabar al elenco (una vez había terminado el espectáculo) y de pronto comienzo a notar que me tiran en repetidas veces y con fuerza y brusquedad de la capucha de mi sudadera. Hagan el favor de contratar a acomodadores más profesionales porque ni medio normal esas maneras de tratar a los clientes. Tan fácil como ponerse a mi altura y decirme que estaba prohibido grabar y ya estaba. Yo no tengo porque sufrir zarandeos ni empujones de nadie y menos de vuestro personal. Sinceramente, una vergüenza. Espero que le den el correspondiente merecido o sanción a esa acomodadora tan poco profesional que el viernes estaba encargada del último piso (general o gallinero). Jamás me había ocurrido tal despropósito y mira que he acudido innumerables veces. Un desatino.

EXPECTACULAR

(Translated by Google) A shame of a museum. With the history that Avilés has and how abandoned they have this.
