  Downside/for Improvement: Clean up the lower garden please and something needs to be done for those who do not pick-up their pets’ poops.

  Note: We (free electrons family) review places from a foreign-family perspective, generally. We have small children and our ability to communicate in the local language (Spanish) is limited.

  Services/bathroom: There seemed to be a public toilet on the northwestern end of the park, but am unsure if it still works. There is an alternate under the plaza on the second floor of the Parking garage.

  The grounds here outside the Alcazar are worth wondering around.

  This is a good park to let your imagination drift back to a time when the Moors ruled Spain. The Alcázar is one of the older fortresses still standing in Andalusia and it towers over what used to be a moat. Today there are orange trees and plenty of them to along with the rear view of the adjacent Cathedral. Jerez is a city of culture and this particular park and the surrounding streets are the true epicenter. This is a typical first stop on a walking tour originating from the Tourism Board just blocks away. On the other side of the park there are wineries that offer guided tours and horse carriage rides for rent.

  Stroller/wheelchair accessibility: No problem at all and with plenty of space; although the little-kempt garden on the south side of the park is not easily accessible due to brokenly paved paths, liter and dog poop.

  Accessibility: About 300-meter walk (3 minutes) drive from Plaza San Miguel. Paid parking lot under the park. Bus numbers: 9 and 10 (circulars).

  Suitability (for a family with children): The main plaza offers a wide space where our children enjoyed playing football and riding their bicycles and trolleys. Others skate on its western end. Lovers and tired tourists rest under orange trees in full bloom in early December. Dogs play with their own. The Cathedral looks on, in the distance.

  With tree-lined plaza overlooking the Tio Pepe bodega and flanked by the Moorish fortress (the Alcazar), Alameda Vieja offers a relatively quiet space for a family with children. . . Except in the morning on Sundays when the plaza would turn into an open used-stuff market where you can get a variety of household stuff—from antique tools to communion dresses, and more. Go for a stroll, unhurried with endless conversations, enjoying the sound of children playing--Jerezano style.
