Over
Korte feiten: Meer kamers dan enig ander paleis in Europa nodigen je uit om vorstelijke pracht te ontdekken, met meer dan 3.000 kamers gevuld met verfijnde kunst en luxueuze meubels. Bezoekers kunnen bewondering hebben voor de prachtige Koninklijke Wapenverzameling, met een indrukwekkende collectie wapens en harnassen uit verschillende tijdperken.
Hoogtepunten: Het paleis herbergt het enige complete Stradivarius-snarentweeluik ter wereld, naast een verbluffende collectie van meer dan 2.000 schilderijen en 4.000 stukken harnas. Binnenin toont de sierlijke troonzaal een adembenemend plafondfresco van Giovanni Battista Tiepolo dat je het gevoel geeft alsof je een barokdroom bent binnengestapt.
Insidertips
- Dress smart casual and avoid beachwear, the palace is an official royal residence.
- Flash photography may be restricted in some rooms, so rely on natural light and use the Sabatini Gardens and western terrace for exterior shots.
- Book the earliest timed slot or a late-afternoon entry to dodge the busiest midday period.
- Combine the visit with Almudena Cathedral next door to save walking and compare the contrasting interiors.
