Reading or working — Carrer de Quart, de les Torres al Botànic

Reading or working pergola benches around the central fountain, Jardí de les Hespérides

It's a citrus garden, so the trees give almost no shade — in summer it's dead empty at midday and only comes back to life in the last hour before the gate is locked, with a handful of readers and couples on the pergola benches. The exception is when the orange blossom is out in spring, which is the one time people come specifically to sit here.
