El Pardo Palace: another Royal site to be visited

Most of Spanish people linkk “El Pardo” Palace to the life of General Francisco Franco, died in 1973. But The Royal Palace of El Pardo, located just a few miles Outside Madrid is a magnificent jewel, started in XV century and it has been the vacational residence of two different dinasties of Spanish Monarchs: Austrias and Borbons.

Everything is very delicate and special inside, but to be honest, I think it is very difficult to find a larger collection for tapestries (many of them by Franciso de Goya) , coming form XVII and XVIII centuries.

I do recommend this visit.
