Start at either spot—you decide! Enter Liria Palace at Calle de la Princesa 20 (next to Ventura Rodríguez metro) with your mobile ticket. Or hop on the 24-hour unlimited bus tour at Plaza de Neptuno. Just flash your voucher and go. Both are valid on the same day or the next day, so explore on your terms.
Liria Palace
Liria Palace isn’t just a home, it’s a lived-in museum where centuries of Spanish history echo through frescoed ceilings and timeworn tapestries. Hop off at stop 4 on the Historic Route for a quick and easy walk to the palace. Wander through 14 intimate rooms once walked by nobility, each space layered with legacy and lit by art. Gaze at masterpieces by Goya, Velázquez, El Greco, and Murillo—not in sterile galleries, but hanging amidst antique chandeliers and velvet chairs.
