Agustín Ross Park ( Spanish: Parque Agustín Ross) is a park located in the Agustín Ross Avenue, in front of the old Ross Casino, in Pichilemu. It is a National Monument of Chile.
The original park contains 100-year-old native Canary Island Date palms ( Phoenix canariensis) and many green spaces. Both the park and the former casino were named National Monuments on February 25, 1988, [1] and the majority of the houses situated in the park are private homes. It has become an attractive walking destination, following its restoration. [2] [3]
The Park was severely damaged after the 2010 Pichilemu earthquake, with all of the balustrades surrounding the park being destroyed.
