L'esplanada de l'Hospital La Fe

Mostly sitting and talking on the benches and low walls, with lunch eaten in the shade at weekday midday, probably filling and emptying in waves around visiting hours rather than by the clock.

Eating shaded low walls along the hospital perimeter, Av. Fernando Abril Martorell side

Staff on a short break eat lunch sitting on the walls under the trees along the avenue rather than in the canteen — it's the closest place you can be out of sight of the building. Strictly a weekday-midday thing; at any other hour the same walls are empty.

Sitting and talking benches on the entrance esplanade of the new La Fe hospital, Av. Fernando Abril Martorell

The benches and low walls out front are effectively a waiting room with no ceiling — families killing the hours between visits, patients in slippers getting ten minutes of air, phone calls being made away from the ward. It empties and refills in waves that track visiting hours and shift change, not the clock.
