    Brilliant view!

    This is the square that right next to the Palacio Real. Which made it a fantastic place to have a break. I was here right after I visited the Palacio Real. Well, actually I was here for couple times. Since I was wandering from one tourist attraction to the others. The square got couple different things, like a small park at the back, And beautiful garden at the other side. And really cool sculptures and monuments. I also love the buildings around it. They are just looked amazing.

    Beautiful space right in front of the Palacio Real. Beautifully manicured gardens and majestic statues of Spanish kings and queens greet you at every turn. The best feature is the fountain at the center. Galileo is said to have helped calculate the measurements, as it is said that it's the first bronze statue featuring a rearing horse. Another fun fact: Neo-Fascists continue to gather here on November 21st, the anniversary of Franco's death.

    Plaza de Oriente is the square right beside the Palacio Real. I ran right into it after visiting the palace. Beautiful statues/garden/sights, even at night! Definitely worth a visit/walk-through. The monument of Philip IV lives right here in the middle. Take a picture!

    A beautiful plaza, reminiscent of what can be seen in Versailles. It is worth spending an hour wandering among the sculptures and gardens
