Royal Palace of Madrid

The Royal Palace of Madrid isn't just a residence; it's a place steeped in grandeur and history. Although the current kings reside elsewhere, this majestic palace remains the setting for important state ceremonies and solemn occasions, making it come alive with its significance. Let's dive into its story now. While Juvarra's original vision didn't materialize, the Royal Palace stands proud as Europe's largest inhabited palace. The Spanish Royal Family might not call it home, but it still holds their official residence. Construction lasted until 1764, and when Carlos III finally inhabited it, the palace boasted a staggering 135,000 square meters, 3,418 rooms, 870 windows, 240 balconies, and an impressive 44 staircases. It's more than just facts and figures; this palace holds tales of splendor and tradition, making every step within its walls an encounter with the essence of Spanish history.

    Our guide was excellent. The Royal Palace is a big tourist destination & very crowded. Doing the guided tour is the best way to navigate the space and to have the knowledgeable guide explain everything.

    Pilar, our guide was very efficient and professional for our large group. She gave us a brief history of the palace history while walking and pointing out different sights to see. Even though the palace was crowed, she herded us effortlessly. The only recommendation I would make is to point out the additional restroom outside at the courtyard at the end of the tours in addition to the one next to the palace shop ( which was 20 mins for women’s).
