Mostly petanca on the gravel at one side, dog-walking just after sunrise and again late at night, and a fenced playground that fills between five and eight; probably the same faces twice a day.
Dog walkingThe perimeter path and dog area of Parc de Manuel Granero
The dog crowd owns the park at the two edges of the day — just after sunrise and again after ten at night, when the kids have gone. It's the only real off-lead patch inside Russafa, so the same dogs and the same owners see each other twice daily.

Kids playingPlayground corner of Parc de Manuel Granero, the fenced end nearest Carrer del Literat Azorín
The fenced playground fills hard between five and eight once school lets out — parents ring the benches on the shaded side and it's the de facto neighbourhood meeting point for anyone with a kid under eight.

Informal sportPetanca pitches at the Carrer de Cuba side of Parc de Manuel Granero
The gravel strip on the Cuba side is the petanca end — the same handful of retired men, mornings and again around dusk in summer, with a spectator bench that's effectively reserved.
