Enjoy a guided tour of 2 of the most important monuments in Madrid, the Royal Palace and the Almudena Cathedral. You better come early because with this guided tour you will have no doubts about either of them.
In the Almudena Cathedral you can enjoy its great magnitude as well as its history. You will begin by seeing the Chapter House and the Major Sacristy, both decorated with mosaics from the Old and New Testaments, which will leave you speechless. Our expert guides will also take you to the dome where you will be able to see the entire city of Madrid like you have never done before.
Later, you will enter the museum where you will see the portraits intended for the 12 bishops as well as the kings who promoted this architectural wonder: Alfonso XII and Doña María de the Mercedes. You will also be able to see several salsas dedicated to the patrons of the city of Madrid, Santa María la Real de la Almudena and San Isidro Labrador.
Another of the relics that you can see is the Codex of Juan Deácono, the oldest document on the life and miracles of San Isidro. In addition, you will visit the Sacrament where the Sacristy, the altar and adoration are located; In addition, it contains a great variety of liturgical objects.
And finally, you will be in front of the special memory of Saint Pope John Paul II.
Once you have taken the guided tour of the Almudena Cathedral, you will enter the Royal Palace which is located a few meters from it. This is considered the largest in Western Europe with no more and no less than 3418 rooms.
One of the first rooms you will see is the Room of King Carlos III, which preserves all the decoration made by the great master Sabatini. Afterwards you will enter other rooms such as the Throne Room and the Gasparini Chamber where the king dressed. Our guides will show you the eastern façade where the apartments of Charles IV and Maria Luisa are located.
One of the spaces that you cannot miss is the Royal Armory since it is the most important along with that of Vienna. On the other hand, you will find the Columned Hall where the dances and functions were held, as well as the Gala Dining Room which, today, is intended for the strong>state meals.
You will also pass through the main staircase which stands out for its beauty andthestatue of Charles III. At the end of the visit, our guides will accompany you to the Royal Chapel which is full of bronze, capitals, columns and pilasters.
