It is situated quite near the town centre and is completely surrounded by the racetrack &#8220;Enzo and Dino Ferrari&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>In 1830 Dr. Gioacchino Cerchiari discovered the curative mineral sulphureous spring waters which quickly made the area very popular. In 1871 this zone was then transformed into a park, with paths and flowerbeds, after the English models. Today the park (11 hectares) has a rich collection of local and exotic plants. The recent landscape works have highly upgraded the park, in fact two new children&#8217;s playgrounds have been added as well as various geological paths. Three historical areas have also been renovated: the area of the antique spring waters (where the old water tanks have been restored), the monumental staircase which leads from Viale Atleti Azzurri d&#8217;Italia to Belvedere, and the entrances to the park.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is most interesting to notice at the north entrance, &#8220;Piazzetta della Fontana&#8221;, a ceramic work by the artist Mannes Laffi, and at the south entrance, &#8220;Piazzetta delle Querce&#8221;, a characteristic mosaic flooring which represents the logo of the park: an Oak leaf.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Parco Acque Minerali<br \/>\n<\/strong>entrance on via Atleti Azzurri d&#8217;Italia and via Kennedy<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening hours:<br \/>\n<\/strong>24 hours a day<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-gmap su-u-responsive-media-yes\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"200\" height=\"320\" src=\"\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?q=Parco%20Acque%20Minerali%20via%20Atleti%20Azzurri%20d%26%23039%3BItalia%201%20Imola&amp;output=embed\" title=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acque Minerali Park &#8211; entrance on via Atleti Azzurri d&#039;Italia and via Kennedy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":8772,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-8782","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8782","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8782"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8782\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":75659,"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8782\/revisions\/75659"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8772"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/visitareimola.it\/eng\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8782"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
