| The palm grove of Santiago and Zaraiche listens these days to the sound of water running through the different ditches that make up its more than 9000 square meters | The Parks and Gardens Service, under the Department of Urban Development and Modernization of the Administration led by José Guillén, carries out an irrigation system in the Palm Grove of Santiago and Zaraiche that bets on Murcian traditions and culture at its most 9,000 square meters creating a unique show.The 600 palm trees that make up this space are watered with the traditional method of the Murcia vegetable garden following the oldest fees based on the opening and closing of tablachos."It is an irrigation that is perfectly measured and controlled, that preserves our traditions and our roots.
Murcians have the opportunity to enjoy this show, very close to the city center, and to make this method known to new generations characteristic of our land "has highlighted José Guillén.Irrigation works carried out by two people for two days, since it is required to open some gates for the water to run, and to close others so that it reaches its destination correctly.
