Description

Discover the Royal Palace of Aranjuez, a former Spanish royal residence located nearly 50 kilometers south of Madrid. This breathtaking structure, built using red brick and white limestone, has been home to the royal family of Spain for nearly four centuries. Inside, you'll find 20 rooms showcasing a diverse collection of clocks, a testament to King Charles IV’s fascination with horology. The palace grounds are equally captivating. The King’s Garden, with its manicured hedges and vibrant flowers, centers around a quaint fountain, one of many within the palace. The Island Garden offers tranquility, highlighted by the Hercules fountain, a fixture since 1661. Numerous other intricate fountains dot the landscape, powered by a reservoir and lead pipeline crafted in the mid-1500s, still operational today. Conclude your visit with a deeper understanding of Spain's royal history and an appreciation for the timeless architecture and gardens of the Royal Palace of Aranjuez.
