Traveler reviews
G Mac
★★★★★10 months agoThis is a beautiful park. It has several levels in parts. One lower level includes a rose garden, which is beautiful. Further along, you will find the Egyptian temple that was gifted to Spain after it assisted in removing the monuments from Abu Simbel. The Aswan dam was going to drown this monument and Spain assisted in its removal. A beautiful dog, friendly park and lovely to walk around. There is even a playground for the kids.
Tammy Gouldstone
★★★★★3 months agoAmazing! It's more than a relaxing city park. It's a mini forest that leads you to the rose garden and Egyptian temple ro the Royal Palace. It is great for a city time out. During nice Spring days everyone is reading or sleeping on a blanket or taking a lunch break. This is Madrid!
