embarcadero

jetty

 

El embarcadero o “casa de cañas” (llamada así por el material en que estaba construido) formaba parte de los que se denominaban “juguetes chinescos”, muy en boga en ese momento, para guardar las barcas e incluía además un pequeño pabellón de reposo, o “comedor rústico”, abierto hacia el agua. Su autor, y el de varias otras construcciones del parque, es el escenógrafo italiano Angel María Tadey.

The jetty or "house of reeds" (thus named after the material in which it was built) was part of what were called "Chinese toys", very in vogue at that time, to store the boats and also included a small rest pavilion , or "rustic dining room", open towards the water. Its author, and that of several other constructions in the park, is the Italian set designer Angel María Tadey.
