The Sabatini Gardens are part of the Royal Palace in Madrid, Spain, and were opened to the public in 1978 by King Juan Carlos I. They are named after Francesco Sabatini, an 18th-century Italian architect. Construction of the gardens began in 1933 and was not completed until the late 1970s. The gardens have a formal neoclassical style, consisting of neatly trimmed hedges in symmetrical geometric patterns, accompanied by pools, statues and fountains, and the trees are also arranged in symmetrical geometric shapes. The statues are those of the King of Spain. The tranquil array is a quiet corner from which to view the back of the Royal Palace.

The Sabatini Gardens are located to the north of the Royal Palace of Madrid. They were originally part of the Royal Palace of Madrid and were opened to the public by King Juan Carlos I in 1978. Once the royal stables of the Spanish royal family, the land was cleared in the 1930s, and the gardens were not rebuilt until the late 1970s. The garden was built by the famous Italian architect Francesco Sabatini in the 18th century, hence the name of the park. The whole garden presents a neoclassical architectural style, with carefully manicured trees, sculptures and fountains interspersed with integrated pools, and symmetry elements are reflected everywhere. In summer evenings, there are often various small open-air performances, including some classical, jazz music performances or stage plays, etc.
