RETIRO PARK
A haven of peace in the hustle and bustle of the capital, what a delight! The Retiro is a must, especially on Sundays.
The Retiro is the lung of Madrid: green and calm, it is very pleasant to walk around. Musicians offer themselves in spectacle (notably on Sundays), thus mixing melodies and rhythms with the colors of the park. There is also a lake where you can rent boats and pedal boats, a bicycle path, a football and basketball court... The park was built in the 17th century and is very characteristic of the baroque gardens of the House of Austria. It is also home to the Velázquez Palace and the Crystal Palace, annexes of the Reina Sofia Museum.

De belles allées, un grand lac, de jolies places ...tout pour passer un agréable moment loin des voitures
il est très bien entretenu. Le petit lac où on peut louer des barques et le palais de cristal lui donne un petit air romantique.
