Beautiful place 👍👌 It is free so no tickets or reservations needed. Dogs allowed. Best for a long walk. There are lots of steps so not recommended for anyone with bone or joints problem.

Beautiful place, it's like a fairies forest!! I recommend to go not to go on sad seasons because the river flow decreases a lot. It is much better to go on spring!!

A truly magical experience, rich in ecology and natural beauty. Not too far from Cuenca and well worth a visit

Fantastic place to walk, as long as you like walking. My wife and I were the only two to walk all around it then joined up with the rest of the people.

Lots of parking at the entrance as well as at the restaurants across the road from the entrance. Simple circular walk.

It’s worth packing a light lunch to eat under the tall trees near the entrance and then walking to the waterfalls, then up to the top where the water emerges from the underground cave.

Es un lugar maravilloso. Recomiendo visitarlo en la época del deshielo cuando el verde se combina con blanco y la cascada es muy caudalosa. La distancia a la cascada es de solo 260 m desde el parking y cuenta con un itinerario adaptado. It is an awesome place. I recommend to visit it in march-april when the snow is melting and you will enjoy a mixture of colours as well as the a major quantity of water in the waterfall. The distance from the car park to the waterfall is just 260 m and it has an adapted path for disable people.

A must-see in Cuenca! Cool view of greenery, hills and the Casas Colgadas 👍🏼

Magnificent views even on a “so-so” day weatherwise

Very impressive! A tad bouncy and you can certainly feel the bridge sway and jiggle when you walk over it which can be disconcerting and if you’re scared of heights then it’s a tad terrifying. But a cool experience. Definitely worth a trip to Cuenca.

Not for the faint of heart, vertigo sufferers or ones with fear of height. It looks harmless from the photos but the bridge's width is narrower and the height of the bridge is perched far higher than expected. Does not help that the bridge has very thin railings on both sides. That said it does have very breathtaking panoramic views of the town and countryside if you can keep your eyes open and stop your legs from shaking.

Lovely bridge. Was fun jumping on it. Just kidding. The middle part shakes a bit but the views are incredible.

The bridge is a wonderful way to enter the city. The other way is through a spiraling road in the bottom near the underground parking lot. It’s hard to truly capture the magnitude of the city if you don’t cross the bridge.

Simply beautiful and breathtaking

Perfect place to visit and stay for the day. No entrance fees.

The Hanging Houses of Cuenca are truly a unique experience, something you won’t find in many places in the world. Just seeing how they hang over the cliffs is incredible. One of the best parts is that you can also look at them from the patio of the cathedral, so by visiting the cathedral you get two amazing sights in one. I truly recommend going and enjoy them

A must-see in Cuenca! Together with the bridge, very nice views. We came in October and the trees, the shades of green and yellow were amazing! ✨

Cuenca is one of the best cities we visited during the off-season, and we definitely recommend going there, as it has the best atmosphere we experienced among Spain’s ancient cities for tourists. We absolutely loved the hanging houses and the entire old town with its varying levels and the impressive fortifications that once made it almost impregnable. It’s incredibly beautiful, and if you climb higher, you get a stunning view of the entire city, both old and new, as well as the monasteries. The impressions were simply magical. We were lucky with the weather: the first day was rainy, which added a special atmosphere to the old town, making everything come alive, and then the next two days were sunny and warm, very welcoming. We also visited the Dinosaur Museum, which our son still fondly remembers. It was a truly wonderful experience!

A lovely hilltop village to visit perched on top of what looks like a mountain. The views are great. Lovely cathedral to visit in the centre with some quaint little bars and restaurants. There is also contemporary art gallery to visit housed in a church next to a very nice 4* hotel.

Pretty cool and scary. There are restraunts inside where you can eat over the cliff!

Really interesting and beautiful place to see. Well worth the visit through the old part of Cuenca

Wow wow wow, I have never been in a Cathedral that has given me so much joy. I love stained glass so this was an absolute revelation. the stained glass in this cathedral is nothing short of spectacular. the original plain glass windows were replaced by the most spectacular modernist stained glass that elevated this cathedral into something quite exceptional. They also had an exhibition go religious iconography that was simply breathtaking. this Cathedral is definitely a must visit if you are in the city

Amazing cathedral with many little side chapels all with a different history. You have to pay to get in but it's probably one of the most interesting cathedrals we've visited in Spain. Pay the extra 1.5 euros to climb the tower and get a balcony view into the cathedral and out into the square

The interior suprised me, the stained glass works of the cathedral were amazing and we could see many reflections inside! The ceilings are very cool pieces of artwork, and there are many details to see. Visited in October 2025, tickets were 5.50 euros for general public and 4.50 for carnet joven holders.

One of the most beautiful churches I have ever seen. The entry is 5 euros, which I think is totally worth it, and you can also pay 2 euros more to go up to the inside balcony, where you get an amazing view of the main square. For the experience and the amount of beautiful pictures you can take, it feels like a fair price. You can truly spend many hours here because each room has so much personality and makes you feel like you’re walking through a masterpiece. They also have an outside patio where you can see the famous hanging houses of Cuenca, the bridge, and even the statue of the Virgin Mary in the distance. The only downside is that when I tried to pay the 2 extra euros for the balcony, they didn’t accept card, so make sure to bring some cash with you. Also, the shops around the cathedral usually don’t accept card unless you spend at least 5 euros, which was a bit annoying. Other than that, it was an amazing experience, and honestly, if you’re in Madrid, the trip to Cuenca is completely worth it just for this cathedral.

Beyond spectacular. One of the most beautiful and special churches I have ever seen. Highly recommend, even with the small entrance fee. So worth it!

The brightest spot in Cuenca for me. Nice vies from the top to the Plaza Mayor and from the backyard to the mountains.

Iconic historic cathedral located by the Plaza Mayor of Cuenca. Rich in architecture, sculpture, and other religious arts. It offers a unique presence in the historic core sitting adjacent to the River Huecar side with rich views from its cloister gardens. The visit has good digital guide resources and offers a series of combined tickets. With time a full ticket is recommendable and gives access during two days to the main cathedral, going up through the facade triforio, entry to the cathedral museum, and nearby St. Thomas church and tower, which are also notable.

(Translated by Google) A very enjoyable visit and in which we learned many things. With the guide Alberto we visited the town of Buendía, visiting the old pharmacy, the car museum and the Church. Very happy with the afternoon we spent, it's worth it. I recommend booking in advance, but Alberto makes everything very easy for you. Many thanks for everything. Maribel (Original) Una visita muy amena y en la que aprendimos muchas cosas. De la mano del guía Alberto visitamos el pueblo de Buendía, conociendo la antigua botica, el museo del carro y la Iglesia. Muy contentos con la tarde que hemos pasado, Merece la pena. Recomiendo reservar antes, pero Alberto te lo pone muy fácil todo. Muchas gracias por todo. Maribel

Absolutely loved our 3in1 excursion tour and Dani was a brilliant tour guide with his overarching experience in all aspects from history to culture and fun facts. Still, with a lot to see, we had enough free time and restaurant/café opportunities. I have to be honest I am not a big fan of guided tours, but this one I enjoyed immensely. Thank you team! 🙂

(Translated by Google) A wonderful day with Alberto. He's so friendly, and you learn so much from him. It's a pleasure to visit Buendía, and the tourist office and Alberto as our guide make it so interesting. They were also very friendly, even in the souvenir shop. Highly recommended. (Original) Maravilloso día con Alberto. Qué simpático y cuanto se aprende con él. Da gusto visitar la localidad de Buendía y que desde la oficina de Turismo y Alberto de guía lo haga tan interesante, muy amables hasta en la tienda de recuerdos. Súper recomendable.

(Translated by Google) We took a group cultural tour of the Buendía area. The first part was to visit the reservoir and the hermitage, which were wonderful, and we enjoyed nature at its best. Afterwards, we had lunch in the town of Buendía, a little gem I hadn't been to before. Our guide, Alberto, gave us a fun and super-interesting tour, telling us a ton of interesting things about the pharmacy museum, the magnificent church, and the wagon museum. I think it's one of the tours where I learned the most, as Alberto conducted it with such joy and enthusiasm that, thanks to his "curiosities," we learned a lot. I definitely recommend this tour, and if you can do it during the week, even more so. This small town of Buendía fascinated me with its hidden "gems." (Original) Realizamos una visita cultural en grupo a la zona de Buendía, en su primera parte al pantano y a la ermita que fueron maravillosos y disfrutamos con la naturaleza en pleno apogeo. Despues comimos en el pueblo de Buendía q es una pequeña joya que desconocía, nuestro guía Alberto nos hizo un recorrido ameno y super interesante contándonos un montón de cosas interesantes, tanto del museo de la botica ,como de la magistral Iglesia y del Museo del Carro Creo que es una de las visitas en la que he aprendido más cosas, ya que Alberto lo hizo con tanta alegría y puso tanto entusiasmo que gracias a sus “curiosidades” aprendimos muchas cosas Sin duda recomiendo este recorrido y si lo podéis hacer entre semana aún más recomendable. Este pequeño pueblo de Buendía me fascinó con sus “joyas” escondidas.

(Translated by Google) A very complete day with wonderful views thanks to the guide Alberto del Val. He did a route and then the museums in such a special way that he kept us attentive at every moment and recommended the Las Médicas Restaurant for lunch. We ate very well. The excursion was on 5/31/2025. We will definitely repeat it. (Original) Un día muy completo con unas vistas de maravilla gracias al guía Alberto del Val senos hizo una ruta y después los museos de una forma tan especial que nos mantuvo atentos a todos e cada momento y nos recomendó para comer el Restaurante las Médicas comimos muy bien la excursión fue el 31-5-2025 seguro que repetiremos

(Translated by Google) We loved the visit. We took it with Alberto and the children, who were delighted with the hospitality and, above all, with his explanations. He provided a wealth of interesting information that sparked great excitement in the children, and not so young, alike. Thank you for the hospitality we received. We recommend you visit this unique town. (Original) Nos encanto la visita, La realizamos con Alberto y los niños encantados del trato y sobre todo de sus explicaciones, un sin fin de curiosidades que despertó en los niños, y no tan niños, mucha expectación. Gracias por el trato recibido, os recomendamos que visitéis esta localidad tan peculiar.

(Translated by Google) It was a 10/10 experience. Alberto explained and taught us things about the town we weren't familiar with. We 100% recommend any activity led by Alberto. He does it with love and devotion. His passion for his town and its history is evident. He is very attentive to the elderly. It was a great idea to have him with us to learn about significant aspects of this wonderful town. We will definitely come back! (Original) Ha sido una experiencia de 10. Alberto nos ha explicado y enseñado cosas del pueblo que no conocíamos. Recomendamos 100% cualquier actividad dirigida por Alberto. Lo hace con cariño y devoción. Se nota la pasión que desprende por su pueblo y su historia. Muy atento con las personas mayores. Ha sido un acierto contar con él para conocer aspectos significativos de este maravilloso pueblo. Seguro que repetiremos!

Belmonte Castle, situated in the picturesque town of Belmonte, Cuenca, Spain, is a stunning example of medieval architecture, blending Gothic and Mudejar styles. It was built in the second half of the 15th century by Don Juan Pacheco, the first Marquis of Villena, it stands atop San Cristóbal hill, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The castle's unique star-shaped design, with six towers reaching 22 meters high, makes it a standout among European fortresses. The fortress was practically abandoned between the 17th and 18th centuries and was more or less ruinous by the early 19th century. The heiress of the house of Villena, Eugenia de Guzman, better known as the Empress Eugenia de Montijo and her architect Alejandro Sureda began a restoration project in 1857, keeping the exterior in the original style but updating the interior to modern tastes. Its rich history includes the abive periods of abandonment and restoration, notably by Empress Eugenia de Montijo in the 19th century. It later served as a prison for the Partido Judicial de Belmonte, and as an Onsimo Redondo academy for the Francoist 'Frente de Juventudes'. It was abandoned and began to deteriorate again, before being made a cultural monument in 1931. It is now owned by the descendants of the empress' sister Maria Francisca de Sales Portocarrero. It was restored again in summer 2010 and opened to the public. Today, it is a Bien de Interés Cultural, hosting guided tours and exhibitions that delve into its fascinating past. Visitors can explore its grand halls, admire the intricate Mudejar ceilings, and enjoy the panoramic views from its ramparts. The castle's strategic location in Castilla-La Mancha makes it an ideal day trip for history enthusiasts and those exploring the region's cultural heritage. After visiting the castle, a stroll through the charming town of Belmonte offers a chance to enjoy local cuisine and hospitality.

Worth a visit! This castle is quite lovely with various rooms to visit. You can walk all along the castle walls which is quite unique and you can get amazing photos of the city. Buying tickets in advance or at the window is recommended. If you’re also in the area, go visit the windmills as it’s around a 10 minute drive so you could do both trips in one day!

Wonderful restored castle. It is a beautiful place to roam around with the information on the scan code in English or Spanish. It's very informative. My only issue was the extra 3€ for views the weapons etc at the exterior of the castle. Still it was worth the entrance fee of 8€

Beautiful castle, very nice view to the city when up to the towers. Large free parking lot just outside the entrance.

An awesome visit! The castle is really impressive and in an excellent status of conservation. This visit is a must do if you are in the area. Reserve at least one hour for the visit. As the castle is in the top of a hill, the views from the towers are awesome. It has also an interesting theme park dedicated a war machinery (trebuchets)

Worth seeing and lots of views of the country and small town. Amazing to see such an old castle/fortress in such good condition, and be able to take photos and your time when exploring the inside and surrounding area. There are 5 towers to climb up and overlook in all directions, and u will also see three old windmills that were talked about in Don Quioti's novel. This place is in the middle of no-where, and a few minutes after u leave and look back, u won't see anything again - a very well hidden place with all the hills around.

Very well set up documentation & tour. Including actors & extensive exhibition of medieval siege equipment.

Great archaeological site, very interesting and also one of the important ones from Western Europe. We walked around for approx. 3.5 hours, the last 45 minutes inside the Museum, where they have a nice selection of everyday objects. The site is exposed to the elements so windbreaker jacket or hat and sunscream are important to have as well as a bottle for water and some food. The museum also has a very pleasant exhibition of everday objects and they offer nice souvenirs as well.

Most underrated site to experience Roman Ruins that I have ever seen. The Park workers take such good care of the place AND there are even multiple places to get drinking water! There is so much to see including a museum and a theatre that shows a great film about the areas history. My kids had so much fun and learned a lot. I also learned so much! Highly recommend. Twice a week they have free entrance - otherwise it’s only 6 euros.

Remains of the Roman city Sego (victory) Briga (fortress) built in the 1st century CE. It includes an amphitheater, large theater, Basilica, Forum and two Roman baths. You park your car at the museum where there is also a small place with food and drinks automates. The rest is on foot and from the museum mostly uphill The museum is small but has some interesting artefacts and a small theater that runs a video that you should see first to get some background information. The video is in Spanish but there is a version with English subtitles that you can ask for. The city is in a splendid location with rolling hills on one side with a river below. There are information panels at the various locations that are both in Spanish and English

Loved this place, it was so great to see such fantastic and well preserved ruins. Be warned it was very windy and we were cold.

Such a pleasant experience. They have a small museum that display findings from the archeological site, and video presentations on the history of the ruin city, which I recommend to watch to get a brief understanding before visiting the site. The only setback is the video only in Spanish, lucky for me as I have native Spanish speaker with me. The short walk to the archeological site is just so pleasent, the surrounding scenery is just so beautiful. We can walk into roman arena and experience the sound echo in it. Although this is much a smaller vision as to compare with the one in Rome but it is very worthy to visit and the entrance fees is so affordable only €6 for adults.

Surprisingly good. Interesting and monumental at the same time. And it's just a couple of miles from A3. People at reception were so friendly!

A large roman village that is being excavated and which is certainly worth a visit. Some excellent examples of artifacts including original statues. The video is also worth watching, only gripe was middle of winter so nowhere to grab a hot drink

Beautiful place to admire medieval architecture and learn some Spanish history.

I came you for the building architecture and decorations, both inside and outside. I wasn't disappointed.

Increíble! Seating heat and a great festival vibe.

This palace (which is now a museum) is beautiful and really well preserved. The ornate decoration on the façade reminded me a bit of the Casa de Conchas in Salamanca. The inside is beautiful with lots of tiles and renaissance decor. We parked easily nearby. The gardens are also worth a visit, especially on a hot day!

Free entrance. Interesting for 1 visit.

The former Palace of the Dukes of Infantado was built in the 15th century and badly damaged in the Spanish Civil War of the 1930's. A video in the museum shows the extent of the damage and the neglect of the building later. But now it has been beautifully restored with the spectacular inner courtyard , the Patio de Leones, as a marvelous centre piece The museum is nice with some interesting details like some painted ceilings. There is also the beautiful marble tomb of Duchess Aldonza de Mendoza who died in 1435. It looks like she could wake up any moment When I visited, early January 2023, the entrance was free but that may have had to do with the holiday season.

Beautiful building. Very pretty and historic. Close to all the amenities in guadalajara.

Quite nice if you’re around. Wouldn’t drive here just for this.

Fascinating and eary arid landscape with windmills of La Mancha. Very friendly people. Restaurants let you use their restrooms for free.

Lovely place, views amazing, shop friendly, one of the bars/souvenir shops up where the windmills are very welcoming, another not so, however, walked into town and went for a drink at Pl Mayor, 13, 13610. What a wonderful family, they cooked for us after kitchen closed, as they were cooking for family. Massive portions, well cooked and presented, made us feel very welcome.

Wonderful place to visit. Near is excellent michelin recommended restaurant. From this position you have best view on the city. And ofcourse you can enjoy in famous Don Quixote windmills. Visit is free, but some windmills are open where you can buy souvenirs or learn more about culture of the area and more about windmills.

Great place to spend an afternoon. Really enjoyed watching the mill work from the inside. The inside is only open on the first Sunday of every month so plan accordingly.

Very well maintained and preserved windmills. Worth a visit. Plenty of parking. Couple of food options there and a small souvenir shop with a very nice staff.

Beautiful location with the best views of the city! These famous windmills have been featured in Don Quixote’s match scene so if you’re a fan of the book, a visit is worth it! It’s free to visit plus some windmills are open sometimes so you can go in and view the inside as well which is fantastic. There are gift shops and restaurants here as well so if you want some original Don Quixote gifts or food, this is a reasonable place to purchase them.

Beautiful pedestrian street with a lot of cafes and restaurants. It was pleasure for us walking on it.

It is a commercial street lined with arcade buildings on both sides. It was a commercial street even in the Middle Ages. It originated from the city's ancient Jewish aljama, around the 12th century. It is a pedestrian-only street.

Good place to walk, to take some pictures, to visit Cervantes' house and to drink and eat.. 😉

(Translated by Google) A very pretty street in Alcalá de Henares. It's nice to walk along these streets. What's a shame is how dirty it is, even smelling bad on some corners. I don't know why they don't keep something so clean and worth seeing. (Original) Calle muy bonita de Alcalá de Henares, se agradece pasear por calles así, lo que da pena es lo sucia que está, incluso llegando a oler mal en alguna esquina, no sé cómo no mantienen algo así limpio y digno de ver.

(Translated by Google) Alcalá de Henares is a city that has everything if you want to spend a few days on vacation. It has places to eat during the week, with menus starting from €15 in restaurants with impeccable service, shops of all kinds, supermarkets, and in terms of culture, several buildings to visit, such as the House of Cervantes. If you want to visit Madrid, you can take the metro from any nearby town. (Original) Alcalá de henares es una ciudad que lo tiene todo si quieres pasar unos días de vacaciones, ciudad que tiene sitios para comer entre semana tienes menús desde 15 € en restaurantes con un servicio impecable, comercio de todo tipo, supermercados, y en cultura varios edificios que visitar, como la casa de Cervantes,y si quieres visitar Madrid puedes coger el metro desde cualquier localidad cercana.

(Translated by Google) The most visited street in Alcalá de Henares. Arcaded and flanked by unique buildings (such as the Cervantes House Museum), it's pedestrianized and pleasant for strolling, enjoying its alleyways, courtyards, restaurants, and taverns. Unfortunately, many shops belonging to various franchises have also taken over, detracting from the experience. Nevertheless, a must-see in Alcalá. (Original) La calle más visitable de Alcalá de Henares. Soportalada, flanqueada por edificios singulares (como la casa museo de Cervantes. Peatonal. Agradable para pasear y disfrutar de alguno de sus callejones y patios, restaurantes y tabernas. Lamentablemente también se han colado en muchos locales comercios de distintas franquicias que desmerecen la experiencia. Con todo, visita necesaria en Alcalá

(Translated by Google) Nice street for strolling, shopping and eating Parking is nearby (Original) Bonita calle para pasear, comprar y comer Hay cerca aparcamiento

Free entry into a walk through the early life of a famous Spanish writer. A look back at a age past gone.

Definitely worth stopping in to learn about one of Spain’s greatest writers, Miguel de Cervantes. The staff was knowledgeable, and the house was thoughtfully arranged and well presented.

Free yes free. Self guided tour of the home of the author of Man of La Mancha. The street it’s located on is loaded with little shops and cafes. It not a heavy tourist area so the crowds were manageable It’s worth coming here for a visit

Amazing to visit a house so old that raised Cervantes! Very well preserved and organised! Free entrance! And there are statues of Don Quixote and Sancho in front of the house! Loved it!

Must see for Cervantes fans! His birthplace and family home. Nicely maintained. Furnished in the style of the 16th century. Entrance was free.

Although the museum is not that big, it’s nice to see the birth place of the most famous Spanish writer, Miguel de Cervantes. It’s also very interesting to see what the place used to look like from the exhibits. If you are in the area, it’s definitely worth visiting.

In center of Alcalá you can find the Cervantes Birthplace house and museum. The entrance is free and you can learn and see how was the lifestyle at that time. Very interesting and a mandatory visit in Alcalá.

Clean, modern and self contained with a nice view of the Plaza. This would be a great place to stay come bullfighting season.

A lovely place in an amazing position on the Plaza Mayor. Could do with a little more storage, draws or cupboards.

Ok

Marvelous 💖💖

(Translated by Google) Good location, right in the Plaza Mayor, and clean rooms. A major drawback is the narrow stairs leading up to the room, and in our case, the steps leading to the bathroom. The soundproofing, compared to the other rooms, is very poor. All in all, the 90 euros per night price doesn't seem justified to me, given its location alone. (Original) Buena ubicación, ya que está en plena plaza Mayor y habitaciones limpias. Un pero bastante grande son las escaleras estrechas por donde tienes que subir a la habitación y en nuestro caso los escalones que habia también para ir al baño. La insonorización con las demás habitaciones es muy deficiente. Con todo esto, los 90 euros que cuesta por noche no me parecen justificados solo por su ubicación.

(Translated by Google) A luxurious accommodation, although the terrace could be cleaner. (Original) Un lujazo de alojamiento , aunque la terraza podría estar más limpia

(Translated by Google) In an excellent location, the room had a small terrace overlooking the Plaza Mayor. The room was very spacious and had everything you needed, as did the bathroom. Wi-Fi, TV, air conditioning... The bathroom with a shower was all modern and functional. The stairs were a bit steep. There's no dedicated reception staff. However, there were no problems getting the room keys. However, we stayed two nights and were surprised that the room wasn't serviced. (Original) En una ubicación excelente, la habitación tenía una pequeña terraza con vista a la Plaza Mayor. La habitación, muy espaciosa, cuenta con todo lo necesario, igual que el baño. Wifi, TV, aire acondicionado... El baño con ducha todo moderno y funcional. Las escaleras para subir, un poco empinadas. No tienen recepción con personal como tal. Pero no hubo ningún problema para tener las tarjetas de la habitación. Eso sí, estuvimos dos noches y nos sorprendió que no hicieran la habitación.

Such a fun park!! Great for a day of playing around, the lines aren’t that big and there’s some rides that are so crazy immersive that you leave fully wondering what was happening! We went in the end of September and already got a lot of cool Halloween experiences and decor! My main complaints: - there’s is basically no vegetarian food options inside of the park (im not even gonna mention vegan) Being that you cannot enter with food this is extremely unfortunate. Had to eat a pizza margarita after 30 minutes of searching for food; - the Halloween experiences were extra charge and it wasn’t that cheap! You pay 44€ for the general admission and then you have to pay an extra 7€ per ride (single). I felt like it wasn’t fair - there’s more stores and restaurants than rides. The rides are some of the best I’ve ever been on and so much fun, but you have to walk a lot to get to them as you always have to go through stores and restaurants - more than once was a ride in maintenance while we were there. Eventually we managed to get on all of them but it was annoying to keep having to go back in line

Visited during the Halloween season and overall had a great time. The park is clean, well themed, and offers a solid mix of rides for both thrill seekers and families. The Gold Fast Pass is absolutely worth buying as it saves hours of waiting and makes the experience far smoother. Food quality was better than expected for a theme park, and the PhotoPass system is a nice way to keep all ride photos digitally. On the downside, most staff speak very limited English and signage can be confusing. The Gold Pass does not work for the horror mazes and we waited about an hour and a half to enter the IT Experience, which lasted around five minutes. Some vending machines also stopped working later in the evening, which was frustrating after a long day of walking. Still, the Halloween theming and atmosphere were great, and with the Gold Pass, the park is worth visiting.

Enjoyed the day, arrived at 1130am checked in and on rides by 12.07pm. Bit more information pre q on how to exchange all inclusive tickets would be helpful. All inclusive wasn't worth it in my opinion, freestyle drinks be a better option. Fast pass was great, and well organised. Recommended as a theme park to visit

Parque Warner Madrid exceeded my expectations and delivered a full day of fun, excitement, and surprisingly great theming. From the moment you walk through the gates, the atmosphere pulls you into the world of DC Comics, Looney Tunes, and classic Hollywood — it’s immersive, colorful, and well-designed. The rides were fantastic! Superman: La Atracción de Acero is a must for any roller coaster lover — smooth, intense, and thrilling. Batman: Arkham Asylum was another highlight with the VR option, and the Stunt Fall ride definitely isn’t for the faint of heart! But it’s not just thrill rides — there are also plenty of attractions for families and younger visitors, especially in the Cartoon Village, which is adorable and really well done. The park is also clean and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I was impressed by the variety and quality of the shows, especially the Loca Academia de Policía stunt show — it had us cheering the whole time. Food inside the park is what you’d expect from a theme park — a bit pricey — but there were decent options, and everything we tried was fresh. I also appreciated the shaded areas and mist zones during the hot parts of the day. Overall, Parque Warner is one of the best theme parks I’ve visited in Europe. Whether you’re traveling with kids, friends, or as a couple, there’s something for everyone. Highly recommend getting the fast pass if you're going on a busy weekend — it makes a huge difference. 5 stars without a doubt!

The park is well organised and a lot of possible activities can be done there. The day we visit was a rainy day and the park kept apoi only one gate, letting the people in the rain waiting to enter for more than 15 minutes.

We recently visited the park and had a great experience. There was something for everyone in the family, nice rides and shows. We will visit again for sure :-)

Parque Warner Madrid is an amazing place to spend the day—we had a great time enjoying the rides, shows, and overall atmosphere. The park is fun, vibrant, and full of things to do for all ages. We genuinely enjoyed our visit and would happily go back. The only issue we found is that some staff members don’t speak English, which is a bit surprising for a park that attracts so many international visitors. It didn’t ruin the experience, but it did make certain moments a little harder than expected. Overall, it’s a fantastic park with plenty to enjoy, and with just a bit more attention to language support, it would be even better.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 “Santiago Bernabéu – the temple where dreams come true… and the hopes of visiting teams quietly die.” Great stadium: huge, modern, shines like a spaceship. The atmosphere is loud enough to crush the self-esteem of any away team within ten minutes. Security is friendly but has the look of people who’ve seen everything – including fans who mentally switched to airplane mode after the third goal. Food? Typical stadium stuff: expensive, but at least the beer tastes like hope. Seats? Usually great – unless you get the guy who celebrates every goal like he just won the lottery. Conclusion: A beautiful stadium. Perfect if you love Real… or bring a touch of masochism as an away fan.

One of the best stadiums in the world! The tour was incredibly detailed and well-organized. it took around 2–3 hours to complete, and every minute was worth it. Truly one of the best experiences I hav ever had!

I was here for the NFL game better the Washington Commanders and the Miami Dolphins and i have to say the stadium is amazing...its clean, easy to get around, chairs are a bit smaller than I am used to in America but other than that its aces. The lightning, the scoreboard and details throughout the stadium is amazing...best of all the food prices are soooo cheap compared to America...at least 50% cheaper, and the food was great.

Took the bernabue tour which cost 35 euros per person and felt like it could’ve been cheaper. The stadium was having an event so they didn’t let us stay inside past 10 minutes or so. The whole tour is an immersive experience, the history is well elaborated so even someone who isn’t a fan can connect and appreciate the journey that the team has had. The architecture is appreciative. An entire section is also dedicated to real madrid city.

As a American coming here, it was truly a great experience! The Spain crowd was curious and interested. The Stadium really gave off that “big” feeling being that there were so many seats taken. For a NFL international game I feel like it could’ve been more functional getting in and out of the game, transportation, etc. but I guess there isn’t much you can do when you have 80,000 trying to cram in the small metro. Experience was great would highly recommend!

Traveled to Madrid for as my favorite football team were playing the Dolphins on my birthday. We lost, unfortunately. However, the stadium was beautiful and packed. Everyone were so nice. Not sure when I would be able to get back, but I enjoyed my time there.

Amazing stadium design let down by the organisation. Visited for the NFL game and there was no organisation or direction for fans arriving. Police moving through on horseback using aggression to form queues. The food and drink we got was reasonably priced for a stadium but they had either sold out or not stocked any hot food before kick off. Ended up we only got crisps that cost €5

A Peaceful Oasis in the Heart of Madrid – El Parque del Retiro I visited El Parque del Retiro on October 13, 2025, and it was an amazing experience. The weather was perfect — sunny, warm, and surrounded by the beautiful autumn colors of the trees. This park is truly a peaceful oasis in the center of Madrid, full of history, nature, and charm. During my visit, I explored the fountains, the Estanque Grande (the large lake), the elegant Palacio de Cristal, and even the Jardín Escondido, a lovely hidden garden full of calm and beauty. You can easily spend hours walking around, renting a bike or scooter, or simply relaxing and enjoying the scenery. I brought a picnic with Iberian sandwiches, fresh fruits, and dessert — a perfect way to spend the afternoon. The entrance is free, and I recommend visiting in the late afternoon to enjoy the magical sunset views over the lake. The park’s location is excellent, close to the Puerta de Alcalá, making it easy to explore the nearby area as well. Whether you go with family, friends, or on your own, El Retiro is an unforgettable place to connect with nature and enjoy the beauty of Madrid.

A trip to Madrid is incomplete without a visit to the Retiro Park. It is so vast, peaceful and with surprises at every turn that you can spend hours just absorbing the different vibes of mother nature. We saw the beautiful birds, some rare foliage and a nice lake / water body where people could do rowing. There is a beautiful blend of nature with history as the palace and corridors of ancient sculptures adorn this park. Some cute cafes too and lots of enthusiastic visitors jogging or walking along, friends chatting on the benches and lovers too. Would highly recommend that you keep time for this place on your holiday to genuinely recharge your batteries.

A really beautiful park in the middle of the city easily accessible with the metro too. It's massive and there's a lot to explore, you can find lots of people but at the same time many spots in the park with more silence if you prefer that. Highly recommend going here.

Once part of a royal retreat in the 17th century, El Retiro Park is now Madrid’s green heart—perfect for walking, rowing on the lake, or relaxing under the shade of century-old trees. The Crystal Palace and Rose Garden are must-sees, especially at sunset. Free to enter and full of art, fountains, and street performers, it’s a serene escape from the city’s buzz and a place where locals and travelers blend beautifully with nature.

It’s a lovely and lively park. There were some excellent musicians playing throughout the park and lots of people but plenty of room to enjoy. We would have enjoyed a boat ride but didn’t have time. We were disappointed that the crystal palace is under renovation and covered.

Gorgeous park with a beautiful lake and fountain. You can rent a canoe to go around the lake, or you can just walk the beautiful grounds. They have a strip of food places that are very nice. It is a great place to relax and take in the beauty of nature.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beautiful and lively park in the heart of Madrid! I just finished walking around Retiro Park, and it’s such a peaceful yet energetic place. Many people come here for jogging, cycling, and group workouts, while others simply enjoy a relaxing stroll. I also saw people rowing boats on the lake — it adds such a charming touch to the atmosphere. In the late afternoon, the light is beautiful and many visitors gather to take photos around the fountains and gardens. Definitely a must-visit spot if you want to experience how Madrid locals enjoy their day.

A fabulous Royal Palace with gardens that deserves your visit. The famous gardens here were the inspiration for the musical piece "Concierto de Aranjuez". This was one of the favorite musical pieces of my father which inspired me to visit. When we attend they were doing a lot of construction and renovation which detracted from the experience. It was still well worth visiting. We said to ourselves we would love to come back when they're done with the renovation work. We were not able to visit the fabulous garden with the fountain because of this renovation work. The other gardens were open with several working fountains and some fountains that were not flowing.

One of the must-see places in Aranjuez. This place is so beautiful and so detailed. I forgot to take photos of some spots because they were so beautiful 🤦🏻‍♀️ As the the UNESCO World Heritage site and a former spring residence of the Spanish royal family. Located in the town of Aranjuez, the estate includes the palace, extensive gardens, and other buildings like the Casa del Labrador.

At just 60 minutes from the Madrid center via Cercanias C3 train. Very well preserved and restored, it was the royal palace for the spanish throne until Elizabeth II after which the seat was moved to Madrid. From the outside it may seem unassuming architecture but the interior has the grandeur you can find in the Royal Palace in Madrid. The main stairs are a late addition which serves as a great intro with an interesting story. The 'Gabinete Árabe' smoking room, my favorite part of the visit because you don't expect a room like that in the seat of catholic kings and queens, is a breathtaking representation of arabic interior design, replicating part of the Alhambra of Granada. I strongly recommend taking the guided tour. It lasts about 75 minutes, our guide was very knowledgeable and eloquent. The tour gives you private access to some of the best crafted rooms with outstanding ornaments and intimate details of the consort spaces. Just one photo of the exterior to avoid spoilers 😁

The Royal Palace of Aranjuez is a stunning royal residence about 1 hr. from Madrid, historical architecture and its vast,beautiful gardens along the Tagus River. Inside, highlights include the Porcelain Room and Arab Room, filled with intricate decoration and history. Less crowded than Madrid’s main palace, peaceful and scenic experience — perfect for a day trip.

This is a great little getaway that is only an hour by train from Madrid. It is absolutely lovely to wander the gardens around the palace. Inside the palace are lovely rooms that the Royal family that used to stay and live in. The tickets were very inexpensive and this trip is great for half a day. We got some drinks afterwards at the restaurant nearby. If you’re looking for a half day trip from Madrid, this is it!

Expansive palace renovated mainly with rather heavy rococo style interiors. The Royal Chapel was closed for a concert thus all in all a “meh” experience

The palace it’s great! If you have time in Madrid you can explore this place

Art museum with lots of artwork, some sculptures. Lots of art are religious theme. No pictures are allowed to take inside the museum. There are guard in every section area to ensure no touching nor photos. Museum and art lovers can easily spend half to a day here. Worth a visit.

The Museo Nacional del Prado is one of those places that truly earns its reputation — a vast, magnificent collection that feels like walking through the pages of art history. From Velázquez and Goya to Titian and Rubens, every gallery reveals another masterpiece. That said, it can definitely feel overwhelming, with rooms branching into more rooms and a layout that’s easy to get lost in — but that’s part of its charm and grandeur. We visited on Spain’s National Day when entry was free, and while the queue took about 30 minutes, it moved steadily. Even on regular free-admission days, expect a wait, so plan accordingly. Once inside, the experience is nothing short of breathtaking — an essential stop for anyone visiting Madrid, even if it takes a little patience to get in. Truly a world class museum.

Excellent experience. The Spanish Renaissance era art perfectly compliments Italian Renaissance masterpieces. We spent 3 hours in the museum and it wasn’t long enough to see it all.

No photos at all allowed here. Unusual but show respect and refrain. Just enjoy the incredible collection without thinking about your social media cred! Budget 5-6 hours honestly. Not as big as Louvre thankfully, but still large. Titian, Rubens, Van Dyck and of course mucho Goya and Velasquez. Bucket list museum for renaissance and baroque art lovers! The photos I took were before I was made aware of the no photo policy.

“The Prado Museum is Madrid’s artistic treasure and one of the most important museums in the world. Founded in 1819 under King Ferdinand VII, it showcases iconic works by Velázquez, Goya, El Greco, and Rubens. Designed by Juan de Villanueva, the neoclassical building itself is a masterpiece. Every room reveals centuries of European art and royal history. Admission is around €15, with free entry during late-afternoon hours—an unmissable experience for art lovers visiting Madrid.”

Famous museum to visit but remember no camera photo allowed. Even in London big famous museum we allow to take picture for memory. Some nice art to see if you really into art anyway.

Astonishing. Breathtaking. This is one of the world's top art museums. You must see. Buy tickets in advance and check on free admission dates and times. Best to plan for a whole day. Guided tours available and are worth the price. Allow plenty of time for security line, especially if you have a timed tour. Nice cafe inside can provide snacks, drinks or full meal. If you've never been go,

An incredible collection of art. Prefer wandering the halls here over some of the other more notable museums in Madrid. That said, it can be a little overwhelming in scope/size, with floor after floor, hall after all. But it is fairly well organized and easy to navigate. There is also a small cafeteria should you get in the mood for a snack or coffee. Definitely worth the cost of admission, and definitely worth your time.

Museum is great, big would definitely recommend to dedicate at least 4 hours to do it calmly and with intention. They have pieces from almost all eras and movements and really liked the route as well. Mondays it’s free so recommend to take advantage of that!! Audio guide was okay, but they focus mainly on a piece at each room and give you a lot of info about it but I was hopping it would be about all pieces or at least more of the overall context or the movement those pieces share, can be better tbh

Medium to large size without clear direction signs. If you have a sense of direction you’ll find your way around, but not easy to make a path from start to finish without more than once doubling back. The timed entry is usually for a ground floor temporary exhibitions, but the best way to see all is to start from the top and work your way down, thus in chronological order of period. But, all that aside, wow, what a collection of masterpieces! Highly recommended. Budget 3-4 hrs to see all properly. Don’t skip any room, as you might miss a jewel amongst works of lesser renown, albeit still tremendously valuable and relevant.

Beautiful collection! Had a wonderful time admiring the incredible artwork. An extremely rude tour guide for the museum decided to stand in front of a Caravaggio for nearly 10 minutes as the room filled up with people waiting to see it. She wouldn't move, kept yapping. Even the people in her group realized they were in the way. Eventually someone gently approached her & asked if she could please move aside so that all the rest of the people waiting could view the popular Caravaggio. Her response was that she was with the museum & "there are 800 other works of art you can go look at". I don't care who you work for or how much art there is in the museum, the art is for all of us. Don't be rude.

Very good museum that covers 500-600 years of art. It’s relatively small and easy to navigate. The collection holds a wide variety of paintings from early Italian church art through landscape painters, Impressionists, Fauves to Picasso and more contemporary artists.

A fantastic collection, brilliantly laid out in a beautiful building. The top floor held the older works, with lots of beautiful religious paintings, some dating back to the 10th century. The first floor contained the more modern works, from around the mid 19th century onwards, encompassing Impressionism, Expressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, Surrealism and more, through Pop-Art, right up to works from present day. The galleries were very well laid out, with a chronological nature to each room - in many cases, it helped connect the dots between the different movements, and bevause of the depth of the collection, in cases like work from Miro or Kandinsky, you could see the artist's style adapting and developing over the years. The ground floor holds the loaned collection from the daughter of the original donor, and contains even more treasures, especially from the Impressionists, with treats from Sisley and Pizarro, and some spectacular Pop-Art period works from the likes of O'Keefe.

My partner who is hearing impaired found it very difficult to hear the audio guide that we purchased. The staff pulled out all stops to ensure my partner could hear the guide. Eventually they suggested that he listen to the guide from the web version of the audio on his phone and direct the audio through Bluetooth to his hearing aids. The audio was perfect and we both thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hours at the museum. Thank you to the lovely team member who helped out with the audio!

Super fun! Lots of action and fun things do but it does smell a wee bit like urine. I assume there is some late night excitement happening and I’m willing to suffer through for great history and exploration!

The atmosphere here is absolutely fantastic, and the stunning architecture of the buildings surrounding the square is truly iconic. It's the perfect place to grab a drink, watch the street artists, and soak in the historic energy of Madrid. It feels grand and lively all at once. This central square is an essential stop and easily a 5-star experience!

Despite being crowded with performers and tourists, this is an interesting place to spend some time. The abundance of restaurants with al fresco dining makes it ideal for a relaxed break. You can easily settle down with a coffee or a meal and take in all the activity while watching the crowds pass by

Beautiful and lively square in the heart of Madrid! Great place to relax, people-watch, and enjoy the city’s atmosphere. Surrounded by restaurants and shops — perfect for a coffee or some tapas while taking in the historic architecture.

Built in the early 17th century under King Philip III, Plaza Mayor is one of Madrid’s most iconic squares, surrounded by elegant arcaded buildings and lively cafés. Once the site of royal ceremonies, markets, and even bullfights, today it’s a vibrant meeting place filled with street performers and restaurants. Entry is free, and it’s especially magical at sunset or during the Christmas market when the square glows with festive lights.

Despite being crowded with performers and tourists, this is an interesting place to spend some time. The palace is remarkable building with the surroundings and spacious concrete courtyard is not good.

Beautiful square in the heart of Madrid. The architecture is impressive and the place has a great atmosphere with lots of cafes and restaurants around. It can be busy with tourists, but it’s a nice spot to sit, enjoy a coffee, and watch the life of the city. A must-visit when in Madrid.

I LOVE this market! It’s a bit touristy, but I love that you can find everything here. The seafood spot and the tapas place are definitely the most popular in my opinion. There’s so much to see and eat, I even got percebes here! Definitely a place worth coming back to.

What's the point t of all that lovely fresh food if you can barely squeeze through anywhere let alone eat your food comfortably? I tried twice in two days. Finally on day 2 I grabbed a fresh kiwi drink and got the hell out of there. Visited these places in other cities, great, here, ridiculously too small.

Mercado de San Miguel is an absolute food lover’s paradise and one of Madrid’s most vibrant culinary landmarks. Housed in a beautifully restored iron structure, the market combines traditional Spanish charm with a modern, bustling atmosphere. Every stall offers something tempting — from fresh oysters and Iberian ham to gourmet tapas, cheeses, pastries, and wines. It’s the perfect place to wander, taste, and share small bites while soaking in the energy of the crowd. The quality of the food is consistently excellent, and the variety makes it easy to build your own tapas adventure. Whether you’re stopping for a quick snack or spending a leisurely afternoon trying everything, Mercado de San Miguel delivers a full sensory experience — delicious flavors, lively ambiance, and a touch of history. A must-visit in Madrid for anyone who loves authentic, elevated Spanish cuisine.

Nice modern high end Mercado to get tapas. You can find things in here that are non-traditional. Lots of fresh flavours but there are also some places where the food looks a bit tired. It’s not a large Mercado so counter space is at a premium. The counters on the inside are packed and you will get jostled. It may be better to get some of the space on the outer window area. One other downside is the prices are more expensive than other mercados or tapas bars. But you are paying for the all in one convenience.

Tons of food options, impossible to find a seat. Was cool to try some Spanish crackers with random fish things on them. They were good…. The crackers were whatever but I guess that’s not the point. I sat outside on the ground. Don’t get why this place is on everyone’s rec list, go to a less known mercado!

They say this is a tourist trap but honestly, I don’t care. It’s a great market with everything. The food is beautifully laid out and they taste good. My favorites are definitely rhe anchovy and sardine tapas from the same shop. 2.50 EUR for each, cheapest in the market AND most delicious!

Amazing choice of food. A little expansive so check prices before buying your food. Very busy so difficult to get seating but well worth the experience and will definitely go back. The steak was amazing and the Jamon was really good although the portion was really big.

Great place to visit, there are free entry during last two work hours, but the lines then after crazy long. One of the most impressive palaces I ever visited. Was also lucky to visit the palace at the day off solemn guard change, that mostly happens on the first Wednesday off the month, but this time it was the second (can be moved because of weather or other stuff) and had a great view from the palace square, seeing all the guards and horses, that lasted for an hour.

What an incredible experience! Stunning!! I’m so glad I visited while in Madrid. Each room is luxurious and unique in its own way. I did the self-guided tour on a weekday and did not buy tickets in advance.

Stunning! Definitely book in advance. Even if you've been before - as we have 10 years ago - the added museum gallery is exceptional (it's jam-packed with incredible things - what a superb bonus that was!).

The Royal Palace of Madrid is absolutely stunning and one of the most memorable places I visited. The interior is magnificent—each room feels like stepping back in time, filled with beautiful details and history. Photos are allowed, which makes the visit even more enjoyable since you can capture the incredible architecture and decor. The staff were polite and helpful, and I appreciated that service dogs are allowed inside with proper documentation. I would recommend booking a tour and skipping the line—it saves time and makes the experience much smoother. The surrounding gardens are also lovely for a quiet walk after the visit. Truly an unforgettable experience in Madrid!

Honestly, I'd say the palace is slightly above average. History enthusiasts will likely be disappointed . It's a nice place to spend the day with kids and family, and it's particularly great for school kids to learn about history in a hands-on way.

The Royal Palace of Madrid is magnificent and awe-inspiring. Its lavish rooms, grand staircases, and elegant decorations leave you speechless. The atmosphere transports you to another era, making you feel part of royal history. The gardens are also fantastic for a peaceful stroll. A unique visit that is definitely worth experiencing!

Royal Place is beautiful and offers a great learning experience, but it can be very crowded, so moving through is slow. The visit itself is fairly quick, but the stunning architecture and interesting exhibits make it worthwhile.

Great visit, very well preserved castle just be ready for a little hike and a bunch of stairs inside. They have an app for your to have your own audio guide and do the visit at your own pace.

Nice place to visit with children. You can learn a bit about the old lords of this region. The castle looks like a mix of different make ups done through the time so not very authentic shape.

This is the best-preserved medieval royal castle in the Autonomous Region of Madrid. The staff at the ticket office and inside the castle are very friendly and provide helpful information on how to navigate the park. We paid the standard ticket price of 5 EUR per person, which was reasonable. The entire castle is about five stories high, and there is a QR code at the entrance that provides an online audio tour in Spanish, but unfortunately not in English or other languages. Once inside, you can follow the numbered tour stops from 1 to 10. This beautiful royal castle is worth visiting. Located in a small town in the Autonomous Region of Madrid, it remains relatively unknown due to its distance from the center of Madrid. The transportation options are somewhat limited; the most convenient way to visit is by car. However, you can also take a bus from the city for 4.20 EUR each way. From the Intercambiador de Plaza Castilla station, take bus route 724, which takes about an hour, and get off at the Manzanares El Real-Iglesia station. If you have the opportunity to stay in Madrid for an extended period, this castle is highly recommended. One last thing to emphasize is that the bus stop sign is located on the -3 level inside the bus station, but you need to go down to the -2 level (same as the metro), then go to the connecting corridor at the end of the building to the other building and then go down to the -3 level to find the 25th dock, and then you will be able to find the bus route 724, which we found through the guidance of the security guards inside the station.

Great experience to share and see the old world! Less than an hour's drive from Madrid. Mother truly enjoyed her visit and being called Queen! Amazing tapestry and views. We were not able to see the play as you have to reserve at least a week in advance. Not expensive at all. Good bucket list item!

Recommended short trip to any tourist visiting Madrid. Castle is well preserved, possibility to visit rooms, walls, and even some towers. Beautifully surroundings. Fair entrance price.

The Castle is lovely and it is worth going. Unfortunately the person who was at the gate was aggressive. We didn't have tickets and we asked where to get them as we didn't see it. My boys were asking him about an armour and the guy was just telling he was going to get the security guard. Beware of that guy. After the agressive treatment we naturally didn't get tickets after.

I came here on my 60 th birthday. It was perfect. Tranquil. Beautiful. Relaxing. Sensational views. Castle and garden worth At least one and a half hours. Was inspired by the film Love and Pain and the whole damm thing with Maggie Smith. Highly recommended

Must do trip from madrid!!! So worth it to drive there (about 1 hr), you only need an hour or two there to take photos and go up inside one of the mills. Amazing views, and you can walk/hike to see all of them or also go by car and stop at each of them. No regrets.

Visiting the Molinos de Viento de Consuegra felt like stepping into a storybook! 🌾 These iconic windmills, perched along the hilltop, are absolutely breathtaking — especially with the sprawling countryside stretching out in every direction 😍. Walking from one windmill to the next, we couldn’t help but imagine Don Quixote and his legendary adventures coming to life. The views from the top are spectacular, with the castle standing proudly nearby and the charming town of Consuegra below. It’s the perfect place for photography, a peaceful walk, and a moment to soak in the history and beauty of Spain. We went early in the morning, and it was quiet and serene, with just the sound of the breeze turning the sails. A must-visit destination for anyone traveling through Castilla-La Mancha — full of magic, history, and unforgettable scenery. 🌟📸

Such a fun place to stop and see this historic site in Spain. The windmills are much larger than they look in pictures and it's amazing to see them up close. You can pay a couple of Euros to go up and see the inside. I think it's worth it as it was very fascinating. There is a little movie they show you that explains how they worked.

The windmills of Consuegra are located on a high ridge overlooking the plains of La Mancha. It is a very nice place to visit, offering a wide panorama of the Castilian countryside—a classic view of the region, often associated with the novel Don Quixote. The views from the hilltop are excellent and stretch clearly for miles, providing ample opportunity for good photographs. The site also features the Medieval Castle of Consuegra, which is located right next to the mills. The castle is an interesting structure to explore, offering solid insight into the area's history and strategic past. While it requires a drive, this destination is totally worth the trip. It combines significant history and appealing architecture with great natural views. If you are traveling through central Spain, we recommend making this a worthwhile stop on your itinerary.

I have a special desire for windmills especially those old windmills, visited those in Mykonos and absolutely like them. Knowing Spain also have old windmills and I have to be there. The sunset here is incredible and I would assume sunrise is amazing as well. Worth a visit and if you drive, drive lol the way up to the last windmills!

Absolutely loved my sunset walk among the windmills of Consuegra! 🌇✨ A wonderful blend of history and nature, with the sky ablaze in gold and pink hues. 🌅 Perfect spot to burn some calories and be mesmerized. 🏃‍♂️🌟 First stop on my mini Europe road trip and it was fantastic! 🚗🇪🇸 Highly recommend!

Wonderful place with stunning views. You can visit a windmill inside and learn how it works. Several languages available. So interesting! Bring a wind jacket 😉

👍🏽👍🏽 Worth the trip, FREE to access outside gardens (most glorious we’ve ever seen) 🚍 GETTING HERE from Segovia is 20 minute drive, buses aren’t frequent. In Segovia, go to bus depot (separate bus company from those operating inside Segovia), pay for your ticket on the bus, €3.70 round trip, CASH ONLY (bus driver has change). Buy food in segovia to picnic out here. ❌🐶 no pets. Perfect way to spend a few hours, even if the fountains are being repaired or are turned off due to drought (check their we site). Technically you cannot bring in food, but many people picnic inside (just don’t leave any trash). But you CAN eat just outside of the entrance in the lovely park—there are stone benches. 🚾 ♿️ Very clean, accessible bathrooms. Cobblestone and small stone paths. You pay to enter the art museum inside.

Nice palace to visit. Sadly when I came, the gardens were closed. The place is a little hard to find and I had to park on a side street. The gards wouldn't let me access the front. Still worth the visit, reminded me a little of the Royal palace of Madrid. I went in March, so there was practically no one.

Very nice, huge park, ample space for kids to run around. We spent 4 hours, without the palace itself, and didn't see everything. The park entry is free. In July they were repairing some fountains and for us the water plays were not on. Still, lots to see. Food is not permitted or available in the park, plan eating before or after in the nearby restaurants. Budget some time for strolling around the old town outside the park.

We visited from Florida, USA. We drove by La Granja. This is a Royal Palace of La Granja de San Ildefonso, is a royal palace and gardens built adjacent to the town in 1721-24. Is a great place to take breathtaking pictures and walk by. They have restrooms by the entrance. We did not have to pay to enter. Is pretty and the views are fenomenal!

Beautiful site amidst a stunning backdrop and NO CROWDS. We had the gardens almost to ourselves - well, us and the songbirds. A delightful visit overall.

Nice gardens but all the fountains are drained so whilst it was free entry it was quite a disappointment. It said the palace was free on a Wednesday afternoon but apparently that’s only for locals so we didn’t go in as I was a bit frustrated tbh

Spectacular building with beautifully appointed rooms containing some very special furniture and art. Audio tour was helpful.

It is one of the largest shopping centers in Europe, housing more than 220 stores and restaurants. * It features an ice skating rink, a water park, and a cinema. * It is located in the suburbs of Madrid and is easily accessible by car or bus.

Many options to eat. Beautiful place. Easy to park. Lot of stores and things to do with kids... The ski place, the game station .. I recommend the visit.

Simply stunning mall away from the crowds, Although it was pretty crowded that day.

Amazing mall with total USA vibes! Huge mall offering retail, dining, activities… they have over 200 stores inside and also this is the only mall where you can ski indoors. There is an aquarium and also kids care. Dogs are welcome.

A good get away place where you can chill out and enjoy your time. Perfect place for families getting away from Madrid crowded city. Lots of variety of branded shops, huge food court where you can find good branded restaurants and fast food, childrens places such as Nickelodeon shop downstairs and the aquarium near the entrance. But most of all and the best of the best is the Snow Zone where the most distinctive attraction which is a huge covered snow track used for skiing and snowboarding.

It is a nice shopping center. The Aquarium is amazing and has plenty of restaurants and places to find what you are looking for.

Very nice and modern, been passing thru for 10 years - saves the v busy city, upmarket stores and easy parking Apple are there with a superb store an mega helpful staff

It was a shame that when I visited in August the military Museum was closed, but at least the entry fee was reduced. The ancient part of the Museum is interesting and I enjoyed going through the evolution of this fort. Hopefully, the Museum will be fully operative soon.

A lovely new museum of military history. Don’t expect to see much of the historic building. They preserved a few pieces of the old fortress but not enough to make it worth visiting for that. The map is good, make sure you follow it. If you happen to wander off of the prescribed path it can be very difficult to get back into the exhibition. There are many interesting items on display and they are well organized. They are all displayed in white display boxes with a small sign in the corner. You must follow the path through the white boxes as you cannot see anything other than what is directly in front of you and the back side of other while boxes. All indications that you are in a historic building are hidden There is one open area where the ancient foundations are visible which leads to the patio and garden where some larger items are displayed If you are a weapons buff or Spanish military supporter this is for you

The Army Museum in Toledo is a fascinating destination for history enthusiasts and anyone interested in military heritage. Located within the historic Alcázar of Toledo, the museum offers an impressive collection of artifacts and exhibits that span centuries of military history. The displays are well-organized and informative, covering various aspects of Spain's military past, from ancient times to modern conflicts. I particularly enjoyed the sections dedicated to 18 century. The museum's setting in the Alcázar adds to the experience, providing stunning views of Toledo and its surroundings. The building itself is a piece of history, adding an extra layer of depth to the visit. Overall, the Army Museum is a well-curated and educational experience that offers valuable insights into Spain's military history. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in Toledo!

Free on Wednesdays, when we visited. Pristine and interesting exhibits but the museum seemed disjointed to us. We had a difficult time following the themed paths. We wish it had been chronologically organized so a better view of Toledo’s history could be understood. It was difficult to follow and we missed understanding more about the Spanish Inquisition and the Franco regime. But cannot complain as it was free. Bathrooms abound and a lovely terrace to look over the city. Lockers available.

Definitely worth the ticket price. This place is packed full of history which was a real treat. The whole family really enjoyed this place. It took us 3 hours to walk the whole place and check out all the beautiful things. The Staff here were pretty awesome and full of knowledge. We basically got a private tour just by asking questions as they were very forthcoming with information and behind the scenes knowledge. Overall if your looking for a great place to explore pick here

Huge and well done museum. This could take all day if you want o see everything.

Samurai in Toledo: The Army Museum’s Identity Crisis Museo del Ejército, Toledo The Army Museum in Toledo begins not with banners waving or cannons booming, but with stone. You descend into the Alcázar’s underbelly and find yourself in the company of Romans: arches, walls, and foundations whispering in Latin. It feels less like a military museum and more like an archaeological dig, as if the whole fortress has been peeled back layer by layer to show its bones. Then the escalators arrive. Dozens of them. Long, gleaming flights carrying you up, down, sideways, through concrete and glass. By the time you’ve ridden what feels like forty-seven of them, you start to wonder if the escalators are the true exhibit, a kinetic sculpture of endless motion shuttling visitors through centuries. At the top of this electric pilgrimage, the small rooms appear. Collections of swords and spears line the walls, armor stands at attention, medals wink behind glass. The galleries are tight, almost modest compared to the vast foundation halls, but they hold their own charms. And then, without warning, you stumble on Japan: samurai armor lacquered like beetle shells, katana blades curved like crescents. No explanation, no apology, just another twist in the museum’s identity crisis. Step outside and the contradictions fall away. Toledo unfurls across the hills like a Renaissance painting, the Tagus River looping lazily below, rooftops glowing terracotta and gold. The view is not just terrific; it is the moment everything makes sense. Verdict: The Museo del Ejército is less about the Spanish Army than about the strange journey of history itself. First the Romans, then forty-seven escalators, then swords, samurai, and finally the view that conquers them.

A good looking medieval gate. Really nice to see.

Nice to visit if you're in town, but not out of this world.

Another gorgeous gate in Toledo. If you're here, why don't you set a goal of visiting them all? It would be quite a walk but I'm sure it'd be rewarding!

Constructed in Mudejar style, was built to give access to the walled city. Dated to last quarter of the 14 century Further behind 100m is the Roman Puerta, layers of history abound in this beautiful town

Central of madrid. All kinds of transportation are connected here, there is tons of market here. Especially souvenir stores. This place provide everything if you want to shopping and sightseeing.

Interesting architecture, plus loved the sun and moon motif. Worth the walk over, with nice views on the way.

Nice square but very noisy throughout the day

This Cathedral is a must when visiting Toledo. Do not let the outside deter you. It is magnificent inside. The architecture, the art, the grandness is astounding. Do not miss the Chapter House, the Sacristy and the crypt under the Altar. Definitely recommending purchasing timed tickets on line to skip the ticket queue. The visit is worth every euro spent.

This beautiful cathedral with its extraordinary interior has a unique atmosphere of high spirituality. The two main altars are extraordinary. The entire interior is a space of spirituality and time enclosed in unique architectural sculptures and compositions, as well as sculptural and painting works. The beauty here is very rich and justified. This space is definitely worth seeing.

Amazingly beautiful. It's quite large and multifaceted. There is no written guide available, including none for purchase. Once you buy the ticket to go inside, your only option is to use a lot of data to download their app. The app is useful as it gives English and other language information on various parts of the cathedral but other parts of it have no explanation.

This building is a beautiful structure, which took over 200 years to complete. It is the highlight of any tour to Toledo. The interior is astonishing with incredible architecture and amazing sculptures. The organs require the sanctuary of the chapels. All of these are elaborate, beautiful and richly decorated. There is a golden and silver shrine in the shape of a church spire holding the holy host, which is just amazing in its beauty and intricacy. The hole that was made in one of the domes to illuminate the back of the altar, enabling light into the chamber, where the host is prepared is mind-boggling. There is an entry fee, but it’s worth the price of admission as this is one of the top five cathedrals in the Christian world.

The Toledo Cathedral is one of the most stunning places I’ve ever visited. The architecture, paintings, and stained glass are incredible—every detail feels full of history and art. I especially loved the main altar and the peaceful atmosphere inside. The audio guide made it easy to explore at my own pace and learn interesting facts. A truly unforgettable experience in Toledo!

This is a must see if you go to Toledo. The Cathedral is astounding and magnificent. You have to buy a ticket in front the entrance, in a little shop. It's I'll made, as you present yourself to the first counter, just to be told, a little curtly, that the tickets are sold at the second counter. The first one being for buying trinkets. Plus the entrance is not the obvious one, the big steps that are first seen when you arrive on the plaza. It is on the right side of the Cathedral, and we learn this by walking all around the immense building. Take into account that you will need a good hour or more to really see all the nooks and cranies of the Cathedral, with all its beautiful art. Paintings, sculptures, bas-reliefs, gilded work, icons, stained glass, stonework, enluminures, etc... There are benches inside were you can pause, for people who need to rest.

This cathedral was the highlight of our visit in Toledo. The classic entrance price is 12€ which is well worth it as I spent 45min inside. The stained glasses windows were beautiful, there are some very impressive statues. There were many people but the place is huge so it is not an issue.

The access was only to the hall with the El Greco’s masterpiece. There is one more painting there. There was no access to the church itself (I don’t know if it is the usual practice).

Worth every cent to see this magnificent painting by El Greco! What more can I say? Pure magic standing in front of it and studying it in person! I would definitely recommend purchasing tickets on line and skipping the line to purchase tickets at the entrance.

This is a must see painting. Advice leave enough time to visit the church, a beautiful contemplative space. The gift shop sells a wonderful postcard to remind you of your visit much better than photos on our phones.

We were in Toledo in October 2025 and happened to walk by so we went in to see the El Greco. Amazing painting. If you're going to Toledo, you must see this one.

The painting by El Greco is amazing. Unfortunately we weren’t told that the church itself was closed. So rather expensive to see one painting for €4 when the El Greco museum is just down the road.

I visited the Iglesia de Santo Tomé in Toledo — such a beautiful old church! It’s famous for housing El Greco’s painting “The Burial of the Count of Orgaz.” The atmosphere inside is peaceful, and the art and stone architecture are just breathtaking. Definitely worth a visit if you love history or art.

Stunning, the top 10 paintings in the world.
