🌴 Jardins d’Alfàbia: Mallorca’s Hidden Oasis Just 20 Minutes from Palma
Looking for a quiet escape that combines nature, history, and beauty?
Jardins d’Alfàbia, located at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana near Bunyola, is one of Mallorca’s best-kept secrets — and a perfect half-day plan for foreign residents.
These gardens date back to the Moorish era and blend Arab, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles. Think palm-lined walkways, lily-covered ponds, lemon trees, trickling fountains, and the soothing sound of water everywhere. It’s a place where you slow down — naturally.

A great spot for reading, sketching, mindfulness, or light photography.
