The Cordoaria Garden, also known as the João Chagas Garden, is an example of how gardens represent an important nature-based solution in the urban environment. This green space, founded in 1865, combines historical elements with modern sustainable practices. Recently, a requalification was carried out that included improving the rainwater drainage system, replacing public lighting with more efficient options, and restoring and waterproofing the existing lake. In addition, the replacement of pavements with gravel and the planting of new landscaped areas reinforce support for local biodiversity and promote rainwater infiltration, reducing the risk of flooding in the area. This garden has about 160 trees, several classified as being of public interest, namely the Plane Tree Avenue, the Linden Tree Walk, American Oaks (some centuries old), Araucarias, Cedars and Sequoias, which throughout the year present its visitors with various colors and contrasts. Beyond its environmental function, it also has an important social function, being a thoroughfare for many visitors and residents, surrounded by a museum, university campuses, a hospital, and important tourist attractions in the city. It is a true green lung in the urban center of Porto. Various cultural events and activities take place in this garden, combining nature with the various needs of the population in that area.
