First, we will go to the emblematic Casa de Fieras, which was the first zoo in Madrid, and we will continue to the Cecilio Rodriguez Gardens, famous for being a refuge for spectacular peacocks.
We will continue to the spectacular Palacio de Cristal, the most iconic building of the Retiro with its impressive glass structure that seems to float among the trees, and then stop at La Rosaleda, a wonderful garden with more than 4000 rose bushes.
Our next stop will be the Fallen Angel, a sculpture depicting the fall of Lucifer, and we will head to the Forest of Remembrance, a particularly poignant monument dedicated to the victims of the 2004 bombing at Atocha station.
We will then reach the Parterre, a French-style garden ideal for taking photos, and continue to the Retiro Pond, where we will also find the Monument to Alfonso XII, an imposing tribute to the king.
Before finishing, we will stop at the traditional Casita del Pescador and the wonderful Montaña de los gatos, leaving in your memory an unforgettable memory of the green lung of Madrid.
