The Bridge´s guardians
Climbing back to the tiny square, one enters the so-called pont dels Arcs (Arches bridge), at its entrace there two human shaped flowerpots: a man and a woman, the work of the sculptor Millet and are inspired in the washerwoman in Parc Güell
The bridge is depressed arch shaped with rustic railings and five arches equally made out of rough stones. The bridge permits to come back to the left bank of the river and to regain the even zone, where splendid poplars grow. There is a paving over the grass, the path flanked by box bushes and a circular square where, surrounded by plane trees, there is a palm tree. Glycines, yuccas and other plants not authoctonous from the Berguedà were brought from the Park Güell, by Gaudí's will.
