Buen Retiro Park
back to Madrid activities
Built in the 17th century as a royal park, Parque del Retiro is considered “the lung of Madrid” as the largest park in the center of the city. A sprawling 118-hectare site, it has a large boating lake and three art galleries: Case de Vacas, Palacio de Cristal, and Palacio de Velázquez. This tree-lined district witnesses a lovely congregation of jugglers and performers, fortune-tellers and painters every weekends and holidays.
