Retiro Park
Madrid, SpainAbout Retiro Park
Madrid's great green lung — a 350-acre 17th-century royal park with a boating lake, a monumental glass greenhouse (Palacio de Cristal), rose gardens, and the open-air bookshops that line the Paseo de la Infanta Isabel. Sunday morning in Retiro, with roller skaters and family picnics, is the essential Madrid weekend experience.
