Royal Palace Of Madrid Gardens

One of Madrid's hidden and distinctive sites is these historical gardens, which were built by Philip II. They were designated an artistic-historical monument in 1931 and span more than 20 hectares along a green axis near the Madrid River. The Muslim leader Al Ben Yusuf attacked the castle from a hillside near the river in 1109 in an attempt to retake Madrid after the death of King Alfonso VI. This is how the fortification got its name. In what are now the gardens, it appears that he and his soldiers camped. There are public restrooms and catering services in the gardens.

The gardens are the only spot in the entire palace where you could perhaps get lost (both physically and figuratively). One of the two palatial gardens in royal palace of Madrid, on the northern side of Palacio Real Madrid, is called Sabatini Gardens. The gardens extend to the Calle de Bailén and the Cuesta de San Vicente, and they bear Francesco Sabatini's name, the architect who created the first-floor plan of the palace. The Sabatini Garden is a marvel to behold, with its beautiful French architecture, big rectangular pond, and four fountains around it.

The east facade of the Palacio Real and the Teatro Real are connected by a rectangular park called Plaza de Oriente. The plaza's curving eastern side is surrounded by a number of eateries located in nearby buildings. The Central Gardens, the Cabo Noval Gardens, and the Lepanto Gardens are the three principal plots that are divided by pathways in the Plaza. Following the Baroque model garden, the Central Gardens are laid out in a grid around the main monument to Philip IV. They are made up of seven flowerbeds, each with a box hedge border and miniature cypress, yew, and magnolia trees as well as annual flowers.
