The royal palace simply wonderful. You have the perception that you can really enter a contemporary piece of history and at the same time breathe the history of Spain. The Royal collections are in a very well organized museum with the works well displayed and explained in a simple and comprehensive way. Also very interesting are the videos available.Bravo, beautiful!!!

We had a great time! It was a long line to get in but moved quickly. We ended up purchasing the audio guide but allowed us to move at our own pace. We loved it!
