Parque del Retiro

Parque del Retiro is not far from the Prado Museum and is the most popular park in Madrid. It is a wide, pleasant and peaceful (ehm... not during week-ends) green oasis in the Spanish capitol.

Beautiful park in the middle of the city. Great place to just go walk around aimlessly, rent a paddle boat with some friends, to go for a picnic, marvel at various scupltures, have a coffee and take kids (on weekends there tend to be puppet shows and stuff). All in a close walk from the subway and Prado.

A brilliant place to relax with some sangria from one of the many cafes or to sunbath on the beautiful grounds. It is even possible to rent a rowing boat for just 4 euros and glide across the beautiful coi carp filled lake

Parque de Retiro is the perfect location to relax if your looking for a place where you can meet every kind of people, from young to old, etc. which are staying together in perfect harmony go there and have fun!

The green heart of Madrid, right in the center, full of green and a couple of artificial lakes.. The place where all kinds of people meet, specially on a Sunday. This is a must see in Madrid!

Thats the place to have lunch on the grass with your friends, have a nice nap in the shadow...or do something crazy ! :)))) Just magic*

Sunday afternoon, the park is full with people playing, dancing and having fun. Something you can't miss, especially in springtime!

A very nice park to relax from business!Artificial lakes, Christal Palace, runnig tracks, many objects for taking photos!

Really impressive - and Madrid as such is not so impressive at all, but el Retiro is so calm and so diffrent

great parc, like 5 degrees Celsius colder then surrounding streets which is a pleasant factor in the summer.

Rustig, groot, mooie dingen te zien ... zeker de moeite om even langs te gaan.

Crystal Castle- must see, beautiful rose gardens with interesting architecture

really great..just go there and lay down in front of the palacio de cristalo

very relaxing place. a whole different world in the middle of the town

Retiro Park it's just huge. All madrileños go there on sundays to relax :)

Wonderful park Take a trip around the lake in one of the small boats

A great place to relax and have some fun, especially on weekends
