Discover Madrid in a leisurely walk that reveals the city from the best side. The route starts from the picturesque Madrid Rio Park, where you can feel the rhythm of the city while walking along the river among greenery and modern art objects. Next, the path leads to the Toledo Gate, a majestic gate that has been welcoming guests of the city for many centuries. The artistic part of the route begins near the National Museum of Art of Queen Sofia, where Picasso's famous “Guernica” is kept. Nearby is the Royal Botanic Garden — a real oasis for those who appreciate the tranquility and beauty of nature. Next is the Prado Museum, where you can see the masterpieces of Velázquez, Goya and other Spanish masters. Don't miss the Crystal Palace in Retiro Park — a light, transparent building that resembles a fairytale greenhouse. After that, you will find the Alcala Gate, a symbolic arch that adorns the city center. For connoisseurs of history - the National Archaeological Museum and the National Library of Spain, where real cultural treasures are kept. Next, the route leads to the Plaza Mayor, the heart of old Madrid, where there is always a festive atmosphere. You can relax in the cozy Secret Garden on the roof of the Salvador Bachilier store, a place where the city opens from a new perspective. Complete the walk near the Royal Palace and Almudena Cathedral, as well as in the gardens of Sabatini and Campo del Moro, where the grandeur and tranquility of the royal residences are felt. Along the way, don't forget to check out the Temple of Debod, an ancient Egyptian temple that has become one of the most romantic places in Madrid, especially at sunset. This route is the perfect opportunity to see Madrid in all its diversity: from art and history to modern urban spaces and cozy places to relax.
