About this experience
Discover the royal palace on a guided tour with a local guide. See the largest palace in Western Europe, stand in a room completely covered in porcelain, and learn about the Spanish monarchy. Meet your guide at the Royal Palace and head inside. As you stroll, hear about the fascinating history of the palace and Madrid. Stop to admire paintings, tapestries, jewelry, and the stuccoed walls of the palace. The treasures of the royal palace are the Hall of King Charles III, which includes the apartments of the Enlightened King and is one of the most important for the city of Madrid. It retains all the decoration directed by Sabatini, uniform throughout the main floor. The Throne Room and the Chamber called Gasparini constitute the most representative ensembles of the taste of Charles III, attached to the rococo style in its most exuberant Italian version. Important neoclassical ensembles and French furniture are owed to Charles IV and Ferdinand VII. Go and see it!
