Guided walk through El Retiro Park

El Retiro Park is such a common point for us to repeat visits and spend any moment that is free for citizens and tourists passing through, that we tend to overlook everything it comprises and the great meaning that has for Madrid, an issue that we settle with this route.

Logically, this large extension, carefully planned and architected, did not emerge from nowhere. Each of its elements, walks and buildings, respond to a meaning that in its day had the objective of serving the recreation of the Court and that still continues to fulfill that objective by making it extendable to the entire population.

Taking as our origin the gate of the park that coincides with thePlaza de la Independencia, we will undertake a 2-hour route in which events such as La Casa de Las Fieras and the Palacio de Cristal will acquire a new meaning for us. we. We will contextualize each of its elements to understand the park that has reached us today.

*The routes are organized by groups. We will confirm the available day.
