We spotted this when closed but noted the weekend opening hours and made a plan to return. Thoughtfully and lovingly curated by fanatics of cycling, we really enjoyed the exhibition on the first floor of he museum which overlooks the park of Caldas. Some of our family are cycling enthusiasts but most of us aren’t and yet we all enjoyed its great collection of memorabilia, posters, life stories and medals/awards as well as original bikes. As the non-cycling enthusiast, my favourite was a Hanseatic trike for grown ups!!

We stayed in the Sana Hotel opposite this park and to be able to simply cross the road into this park was a lovely surprise! It is almost a secret place, no crowds, but such a fabulous, quiet, romantic setting for a walk, a picnic or just to get outside and breathe. A ´Must See´ place.
