It balances so many "rocks". Beautiful park, always full of people with many different areas to relax in, from the main lagoon to any of the 'cafes'. Beautiful Glass palace. Basically behind the El Prado museum.

Much more than a simple park.
The Crystal Palace, the Rose Garden, the pond, and its adjoining monument...
But may be most of all the magnificent trees ask around.
A total must see and be in Madrid

Giant park in the middle of the town. Plenty to see, a lot of room to walk around and also some great scenery for pictures. Recommend checking it out if you are in Madrid.

So many paths and places to wander, filled with beautiful trees and delightful statues and water features. Skilled buskers add to the atmosphere. Definitely a welcome relief from the hot summer days to find a shady spot.

This park reminds me of Central Park in NYC, but a smaller version and it’s just as beautiful. I loved walking around here and taking in the various monuments, the large pond surrounded with people and also filled with people on the water. The vibes here were immaculate and if you’re looking to do something in Madrid or just wanting to relax then this is the place to be!
