The light filtered subtly through the branches of the elm tree, creating a tapestry of shadows and sparkles on the damp leafy soil of the riparian forest.

I walked through a corner of nature where time seemed to stand still. Silence was the master of the space and the whispers of the Tajo, witness of the history of Toledo, was the only voice that emerged in that quiet place.

I continue on my way, open my eyes and suddenly, this landscape seems to vanish. The lush vegetation remains a small vestige of that idyllic space where soul and nature went hand in hand.

It is at this moment that the project arises with the aim of achieving the recovery of the riparian forest, currently damaged. Transforming this static landscape into a dynamic landscape that recovers the lost relationship between the city and the river.

The current central nursery of Toledo will be the starting point. Its deteriorated image and wasted spaces, make it lose its considerable potential as a place for the beginning of this renaturalization. Enhancing the identity of the place as a land that offers the best opportunities as an ecological space, reaching the identification of new forest nursery of the Tajo.

The connections will also serve to be lived, enjoying its route. For this, the main connector will be the native vegetation, owner of the place, linked to the origins of the low valley of the river. The project aims to embrace both banks, through different interventions that coexist among the trees and allow walks where water is the guide of the path.

Lost in the forest on the banks of the Tajo I found that connection with nature that I had been looking for, a refuge where the mind rests from the noise of the world.
