Trip to Madrid, Spain ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ

It was a trip to Madrid, Spain ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ We started our day early at Templo de Debod, and it was one of the best decisions we made. This ancient Egyptian temple, gifted to Spain, is stunning at sunrise โœจ when the soft golden light reflects on the water surrounding it. The peaceful atmosphere and panoramic views of Madrid made this spot one of our favorite places for photos ๐Ÿ“ธ If you visit early, youโ€™ll have the place almost to yourself, making it even more special ๐Ÿ™Œ ๐Ÿ“Calle de Ferraz, 1, 28008 Madrid, Spain We also made our way to Plaza Mayor, the heart of Madridโ€™s historic center. We arrived mid-morning โ›…๏ธ just as the sunlight illuminated the red faรงades of the surrounding buildings. This is the perfect time to take photos ๐Ÿ“ธ before the crowds fill the square. The grand architecture, intricate balconies, and the iconic statue of King Philip III made for some fantastic shots ๐Ÿ˜ ๐Ÿ“Plaza Mayor, 28012 Madrid, Spain We also explored the Royal Palace of Madrid, a true architectural masterpiece. The best time to visit is mid-to-late afternoon when the lighting highlights the intricate details of the palaceโ€™s faรงade. Inside, the grand staircases, opulent chandeliers, and frescoed ceilings provided endless photography opportunities ๐Ÿ“ธ The Plaza de la Armerรญa, just in front of the palace, also offers a stunning backdrop ๐Ÿ’ฏ ๐Ÿ“Calle de Bailรฉn, s/n, 28071 Madrid, Spain For golden hour ๐Ÿ•ฐ๏ธ we made our way to Parque del Retiro, one of Madridโ€™s most beautiful green spaces. The sunlight โœจ filtering through the trees created a dreamy atmosphere, perfect for photos ๐Ÿ“ธ The highlight of our visit was the Crystal Palace, a stunning glass structure that looked magical as the sun set behind it. We highly recommend visiting just before sunset for the best reflections on the water ๐Ÿ™Œ ๐Ÿ“Paseo de Cuba, 4, 28009 Madrid, Spain We also headed to Gran Vรญa, Madridโ€™s most famous street. The best viewpoint is from a rooftop terrace, where you can capture the city skyline bathed in golden light โœจ Watching the lights of the theaters and buildings come to life as night fell was an unforgettable experience. If you love cityscape photography, this is the place to be ๐Ÿ“ธ ๐Ÿ“Gran Vรญa, 28013 Madrid, Spain This itinerary gave us some of the best photo opportunities in Madrid. We explored the cityโ€™s rich history, stunning architecture, and lively atmosphere, and we highly recommend these spots for anyone visiting ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ #europetrip #vacation #travel
