Parque del Buen Retiro

Parque del Buen Retiro (Park of the Pleasant Retreat) is the largest park in Madrid.  It used to be a park for the royal family but as of the 19th century it has been open to the public.  The park is massive consisting of 350 acres. 

Location:  The park is not far from the Prado Museum and it is also very close to the Puerta del Alcala. 


There was a book festival in the park when I was walking through today.
