The Jardín Botánico situated at the intersection of the Gran Vía and Turía riverbed, was inaugurated in 1802, making it the oldest and – with its bounteous collection of palms, shrubs and trees – one of the largest botanical gardens in Europe. Nearby, the smaller Jardines del Turía occupy the dry riverbed of the Turía River, which was diverted in the 1950s after a massive flood.
A network of foot and bicycle paths winds through its gardens and flower beds, and a number of ancient bridges cross above it. These include the 16th-century Serranos, obvious for its buttresses, and the San José, with its pointed arches. The Real Bridge has two temples housing statues of the Saints vicente Mártit and Vicente Ferrer; and the Puente del Mar long served as the route from the city to the port and sea.
