La pagina web para sacar las entradas te dirige directamente a las mas caras no haciendo mencion de la gratuidad para docentes y para mayores de 65 años. Es como si se pusieran dificultades pàra conseguir entradas a precio módico. Después de mucho buscar lo he conseguido pero he tardado mas de 30 minutos. Las salas impresionantes y podemos comprobar la riqueza de las casas reales que ha tenido España. La puntuación refleja amba dicotomia: una exposicón impresionante y un sistema de obtener entradas poco amigable.

Impresionante!

Nous avons passé un moment absolument magique en visitant la galerie royale du palais royal avec mon mari. L’architecture est tout simplement impressionnante, et chaque salle regorge de détails historiques fascinants. Le guide était très compétent et a su rendre la visite à la fois intéressante et accessible. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié les magnifiques fresques et les œuvres d’art qui racontent l’histoire de la monarchie. C’était une expérience culturelle enrichissante et romantique à la fois. Je recommande vivement cette visite à tous ceux qui souhaitent découvrir le patrimoine royal dans un cadre élégant et chargé d’histoire.
