Description of Guided tour of El Capricho park
The Capricho Park has its origins in the 18th century, when the Duchess of Osuna acquired some land on the outskirts of the city of Madrid. Here she had her "caprice" built, which would be a garden with themed spaces, where the dukes could have fun. For this reason, we find different constructions in the park:
- A labyrinth.
- A casino.
- A fort.
- The ruins of a castle.
- A Byzantine hermitage.
- The "old woman's house."
Currently, the park occupies 14 hectares, where we can find gardens of English and Italian style (created by Jean-Baptiste Mulot).
Water is a fundamental element in Capricho. They even made a pier, a pond and an artificial estuary.
Great artists of the time worked in this place, such as Goya (painting El Columpio or La Pradera de San Isidro) or Boccherini, the composer.
With this guided tour, you will discover all the secrets of this beautiful park.

A beautiful gem of Madrid that must be visited. If someone also explains its history, its charms and its little secrets to you, and does it as well as Edurne, all the better. A surprising place, faithful to the spirit with which its owner conceived and created it.Review useful for 0 people Did you find this helpful? Yes

Very interesting and special. Edurne perfectly conveys the unique character of this open-air Garden Museum. Although I know him well, he pleasantly surprised me by showing me places and curiosities that I did not know.Review useful for 0 people Did you find this helpful? Yes
