a beautiful palace in Madrid 😍🏰👑

I booked a walking tour online which includes tickets to the Royal Palace of Madrid. I would so recommend doing so if you are going to Madrid because: No. 1 you have a tour guide that walks with you while explaining the history of Madrid & No. 2 you get to skip the queue for getting tickets and also entering the Royal Palace (very important because the palace is always really busy and the sun in Madrid is blazing hot 🥵) The palace is well maintained, very pretty and grand and definitely is worth a visit. I would say the palace quite the perfect example of east meet west where you can see some oriental inspired decorations and wallpapers. I personally do not have any prior knowledge about the Spanish royal family so it was nice to have a tour guide who explained everything to the finest details to us!! #timetotravel #境外遊 #madrid #royalpalace

Trip to Spain, full of harvest

As a highly developed capitalist country, Spain is also one of the countries with the most world cultural heritage sites, with its cities being among them. Here are representatives of Arabian-style palace courtyards - the Alhambra Palace; the masterpiece of Gaudi, known as "God's architect" - the Sagrada Familia; the Guell Park where Gaudi worked and lived for 20 years; the Madrid Royal Palace, one of the most complete and exquisite palaces in the world; the third largest cathedral in the world - the Seville Cathedral, and so on. Other must-visit attractions: House of Batllo, House of Mila, Plaza de Espana, Plaza del Sol, Toledo, Prado Museum. Best travel time: Autumn is warm, comfortable, and has long daylight hours, making it the best time for sightseeing.

The incredible Royal palace of Madrid

The largest royal palace in Europe is in Madrid, Spain. Construction began in 1735, and it took many architects many years to construct! Visitors can wander outside, but must pay a €13 fee to enter inside. At certain times, the palace opens for free so be sure to check that out! Inside are many priceless pieces of art that date back many generations. It also contains the Royal armoury that can be traced back almost 500 years.

Royal Palace of Madrid

The exterior of the palace looks more beautiful than the interior. The elegant architecture is befitting to be abode for the royalty. A must visit if you are in Madrid! Also make sure you buy tickets a few weeks in advance online or it's not a guarantee that you will get in! Another advice is don't try to sneak in pictures in the no picture areas, security takes that stuff extremely seriously from what we saw. Other than that the place is absolutely beautiful and if you are into history you can learn a lot from here! Don't forget to visit the armory on the way out! It's a little hidden away so most people don't see it, it's across from the place you originally entered in the first courtyard.

The Royalty of Spain!

#celebratewithtrip Yes, Spain still has a royal family! It is one of the few remaining nations in the world with a constitutional monarchy. On my recent visit to Spain, I dedicated a beautiful afternoon to the Royal Palace of Madrid. The palace was built in 1751. Across its large estate of over 135,000m2 of floor space, it also features 3,418 stunning rooms! There are many things to see and do at the royal palace. For starters, I highly suggest seeing the Painting Gallery, The Royal Armoury, The Royal Kitchen (it boasts the oldest and most well preserved Royal Kitchen of any European royal residence!). Similar to other European royal residences, it also attracts crowds to its Changing of the Guards. For awesome instagram worthy pictures, check out the observation deck which offers fantastic views of the breathtaking gardens. Address: C. de Bailén, s/n, 28071 Madrid, Spain Getting there: Metro to Ópera or Plaza de España; many other bus services too! Admission: Free admission of EU citizens, varying ticket prices for different access packages The palace is open to visitors all year round, though I recommend visiting in Fall or Summer! Overall, a must see when in Madrid, Spain. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot #spain

The #royalpalace of #madrid #spain is the official residence of the Spanish Royal Family and believed to be the largest palace in Europe. It is only used for state ceremonies and was founded in the 1800s. #inspiration #palace #happynewyear

On the second day of Madrid, the new Spanish emperor ascended the throne, and the entire city was greeted with the glory of Prince Felipe. I stood in the third row of the crowd, but only shot five small points, you feel it. The last time the emperor was enthroned, it is said that it was 40 or 50 years ago. About this joy, how much can dilute the sadness of the Spanish World Cup.

A trip to Spain is not just a simple tour, but a profound cultural experience. From the rich artistic atmosphere of Madrid to the architectural wonders of Barcelona, each stop is filled with discoveries and surprises. Madrid, the heart of Spain, is renowned for its unparalleled art galleries and historical buildings. The Puerta del Sol, the Royal Palace, the Prado Museum, and the Retiro Park, each place is captivating and unforgettable. Barcelona, known as the 'City of Gaudí', with its unique architectural style and vibrant street art, feels like walking into a moving painting. Seville and Granada show another side of Spain—rich Islamic history and culture. The Royal Palace of Seville, its squares, and the third-largest cathedral in the world, each place exudes a unique charm. The Alhambra Palace of Granada allows one to feel the weight of history. The meaning of travel lies not only in the scenery seen but also in the experiences along the way and the touch of the soul. Spain's slow-paced life, passionate and unrestrained customs, and rich historical and cultural heritage make this trip especially precious. Conclusion: Although the Spanish journey has ended, the passion and beautiful memories will remain in the heart forever. This was not just a physical journey, but a spiritual cleansing. Spain, a country full of art and culture, looks forward to the next meeting.

A trip to Madrid, a great spot for travel check-ins

Spain is a beautiful country that is very worth visiting. After our first night in Madrid (quite lazy), we decided to make the most of the next day to make up for it. The next day we started off at Madrid's famous food market, Mercado de San Miguel, where we had some delicious food, and then we headed to Plaza Mayor, the main square of Madrid. Since it is the main square, it is expected that the restaurants and bars around the area might be a bit more expensive than usual. The rest of the time was spent on various things, from eye-catching, stunning Spanish architecture... to colorful gardens... and quaint alleys. One of the main attractions worth seeing here is the Almudena Cathedral, this astonishing cathedral is located opposite the Royal Palace of Madrid.

Visit the Royal Palace of Madrid, all the fairy tales have a picture

The Royal Palace of Madrid (Palacio Real de Madrid) is the third largest royal palace in Europe after the Palace of Versailles and the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna. The interior is golden and brilliant, revealing the rich and luxurious Bourbon dynasty, and is still used for state affairs. After going there, I will never say that I am a Disney princess again, the palace is my home! When I was a child, I listened to fairy tales and imagined what the castle where the princess lived looked like. When the prince and princess held a ball, the magnificent dining room, the silver shining exquisite tableware, the crystal lamp shining at night, the wall full of murals and embroidery, the velvet floor mat... All finally had a picture in this trip. The palace has many rooms, everywhere is gold and silver ornaments, royal unique furniture, furnishings, are preserved, the walls are mostly exquisite embroidery, the ceiling also has beautiful murals! Words can't describe it! My friend and I came out and couldn't recover for a long time. I suggest you go when the weather is good, you can see the blue sky of the castle through the windows of the palace, and there is a large viewing platform! Very beautiful~ You must buy tickets in advance (you can buy with self-help explanation machine, there is Chinese), the queue for on-site ticket purchase is extremely long, please note that you cannot bring water into the palace, and only the first two halls can take pictures, the rest cannot (there will be staff watching), it takes about 1.5h-2h to see around. In addition! Students bring their student cards! You can buy student tickets~ half price Royal Palace of Madrid

Nice Spanish food and vintage Benz

Spain Travel Diary Royal Palace

During my recent trip, I had the privilege of visiting the Royal Palace of Madrid in Spain. This palace is one of the largest royal palaces in Europe and one of the most important historical and cultural heritages in Spain. Upon arriving at the palace, I was immediately attracted by its grandeur and magnificence. The exterior of the palace is built of heavy stone, with a large number of carvings and decorations, showcasing the traditional Spanish architectural style. As soon as I entered the palace, I was immediately shocked by the magnificent courts and halls. I visited many different rooms and exhibitions, each exuding a sense of history. The most impressive to me was the royal chapel of the palace, which houses some precious religious artworks and ancient religious memorabilia. In addition, I visited some of the palace's living rooms and bedrooms, experiencing the luxury and comfort of royal life. During the visit to the palace, I also learned a lot about Spanish history and culture. For me, the most interesting thing was to learn about the traditions and ceremonies of the Spanish royal family, as well as their roles and responsibilities in national affairs. In addition to the palace itself, the gardens around the palace are also very beautiful. I strolled among them, admiring the flowers, trees, and charming fountains. This is a perfect place for me to relax and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of nature. Overall, visiting the Royal Palace of Madrid was a very memorable experience. I not only appreciated the charm of Spanish history and culture, but also deeply experienced the luxury and solemnity of royal life. I hope to have the opportunity to come here again in the future and continue to explore this dreamlike palace.

[Madrid Palace] The Palace of Madrid was built by King Philip V in 1700. Philip V was born in Versailles. He maintained a strong French style for 40 years. Philip V hoped to put it here. Turned into Versailles in Spain to help him establish the Bourbon dynasty. Madrid is the most geographically located capital in Europe and one of the most green European cities. The Palace Square can overlook the suburbs of Madrid and the green Moorish Square gardens. The whole palace is very large. There are more than 2,000 rooms. No photos are allowed in the room. The palace is like the old palace. It is a bit like the low version of the French Palace of Versailles. The only difference is that there is a room with a dome depicting it. Its not the Western mythology but the ancient heavens. The patterns are also like Chinese ink paintings. Besides, there are many beautiful oriental porcelains in each room. What attracts me most is the gorgeous long table that can accommodate more than 100 people. Looking at the beautifully placed dining utensils, going back to ancient times, I can imagine the glory of the time and the scenes of the royal family, which is also very visual. The Madrid Palace cloister powder, the sun shines very elegantly, the interior room is not allowed to shoot, I can only pat the hall and the outside corridor. Arrival: Take Metro Line 5 or Line 2 and get off at the Opera (pera) stop, then head west to cross the Royal Opera House and Oriental Plaza, 5 minutes walk.

The Madrid Palace was built in 1764. Before entering the tour, it is necessary to make an appointment in advance and send a translator. The foreigner is holding a mobile phone that can watch the screen. Not all rooms can take pictures, only three rooms are available. One of the rooms is decorated with porcelain tableware, and the degree of luxury is amazing. The architecture of Spain is exquisite. If you like to shoot architecture, I suggest you come to Spain and you will definitely miss this trip.
