   4 h

2. El Retiro, a historical park located near the city center, is perfect for disconnecting from the noise of the city, playing sports, walking or just sitting on a bench to read or get in touch with nature. Although it can be visited at any time of the day and week, we recommend you do it on a Sunday to enjoy a much more lively atmosphere in which there will be no lack of musicians, different shows for children and adults and even psychics, who you can always ask How long will it take to get back to this amazing city. Inside the Retiro you cannot miss a visit to the Crystal Palace and the pond, one of the most famous images of the park, where if you come in spring or summer, the seasons preferred by tourists visiting Madrid and in good weather, you can rent a boat to enjoy the surroundings. To leave or enter the park we recommend you do it through the Puerta de Alcalá, the most famous of the five old royal gates that gave access to the city and another of the essential places to see in Madrid.

   2 h

3. The Royal Palace or Palacio de Oriente, was the official residence of the kings of Spain until they moved to the Palacio de la Zarzuela, and another of the essential places to visit in Madrid. This huge palace, the largest in Western Europe, is currently used for tourist visits and is closed for state ceremonies and official events. The Palace is surrounded by the Campo del Moro and Sabatini gardens, where magnificent photos are taken from the latter with the Royal Palace in the background.
