The battery park receives its name because where it is located previously there were defensive batteries during the Spanish Civil War, the mountain where it is located because of its location and altitude was also used to control the maritime traffic of the beach and thus to defend against frequent enemy attacks.
El parque de la batería recibe su nombre debido a que donde está situado previamente existían unas baterías defensivas durante la guerra civil española, la montaña donde está ubicado por su situación y altitud también era utilizada para controlar el tráfico marítimo de la playa y así poder defenderse de los frecuentes ataques enemigos.
The city of Torremolinos took advantage of the old coastal defense facilities that had the area reforming it for the construction of the park, so you can still visit the sites where the artillery guns are, as well as two subway bunkers where they kept the shells.
El ayuntamiento de Torremolinos aprovechó las antiguas instalaciones de defensa costera que contaba la zona reformándola para la construcción del parque, por eso todavía se puede visitar los emplazamientos donde estan los cañones de artillería, así como dos búnkeres subterráneos donde guardaban los proyectiles.
Another great attraction of this park is the tower that is located in the area where the canyons are, from the top we can see a spectacular view of the sea and the entire park, has an elevator for easy access for the elderly or disabled.
Otro de los grandes atractivos de este parque es la torre que se encuentra en la zona donde están los cañones, desde arriba podemos ver una espectacular vista al mar y de todo el parque, tiene un ascensor para facilitar el acceso a las personas mayores o con discapacidad.
There is also a small and beautiful artificial lake where you can rent rowing boats and take a pleasant walk, inside the lake we can see a large statue of Neptune.
También hay es un pequeño y bonito lago artificial en cual se pueden alquilar unas barcas a remo y poder dar un agradable paseo, dentro de lago podemos observar una gran estatua de Neptuno.
There are two beautiful fountains inspired by the typical Italian ones, they were designed by a sculptor from the town of Malaga.

It has a children's play area with modern facilities of all kinds where the little ones have a great time.

Tiene una zona de juegos infantiles con unas modernas instalaciones de todo tipo donde los más pequeños se lo pasan genial.
A very funny detail that the park has is the "pacifier tree", it is customary for children to hang their pacifiers when they no longer need it, so they do not get sad, they say that some of them when they are older see the pacifier they left when they were little, checking with joy that they are still in the place they left it when they were babies.
Un detalle muy gracioso que tiene el parque es el "árbol de los chupetes", es costumbre que los niños cuelguen sus chupetes cuando ya no lo necesitan, haciendo que así que no se entristezcan, dicen que algunos de ellos cuando ya son mayores vuelven a ver el chupete que dejaron cuando eran pequeños, comprobando con alegría que aún están en el sitio que lo dejaron cuando eran bebés.
A perfect place for children and adults to enjoy all year round.
Un lugar perfecto para disfrutar los niños y mayores durante todo el año.
I hope you liked it!
