The Jardins d’Eusebi Güell are gardens located in the square of the same name; they are circular and located in the middle of the square and boast exuberant vegetation and plenty of benches. The Polytechnic University of Catalonia’s Vèrtex Building (where UPC has classrooms and an auditorium) and the northern access to the Vice-Chancellor’s Office lead into the square. Plaça d’Eusebi Güell combines coarse sand paths, hard pavement and lawn areas. The northern half of the square has no trees, in contrast to southern half, which has an area shaded by a number of trees, such as acacias, lime trees and nettle-trees, and three outstanding palm trees almost in the middle of the square. Note the design of the winding paths running across the rounded area of the square and the numerous benches lining those paths. This is the starting point for visits to some of the elegant Pedralbes’s most representative streets, such as Carrers Cavallers and Sor Eulàlia d’Anzizu.
