El Capricho Park in Madrid
About
El Capricho Park is considered a true green oasis in the Spanish capital, which, strangely enough, is rarely known to visitors and tourists. It is hard to imagine a more beautiful and picturesque place in Madrid, created by the hands of both man and nature.
El Capricho uniquely combines three styles of landscape design: English, French, and Italian. Fragrant laurel bushes here give way to ancient oaks, lilacs, and almond trees, which seamlessly transition to neatly trimmed lawns and shrubs. Local residents come here to relax in the shade of the alleys among twelve busts of Roman emperors, the Old Lady's house, the Hermit's hut, and the miniature sanctuary of Bacchus, who offers his protection to all lovers.

Es un parque hermoso

Muy bonito el parque, limpio y bastante agradable

Fantástico descubrimiento a 40 minutos del centro de Madrid en la linea 5 de metro. Abierto los sábados y festivos. Entrada gratuíta. Propiedad, en su momento, de los duques de Osuna. Hicieron del espacio un jardín de cuento en el que puedes pasear (y maravillarte) con el propio palacio de los duques, los jardines de tipo francés e inglés, un laberinto vegetal, templetes, lagos y cascadas, hermosos estanques, la plaza de toros, la ermita, el embarcadero de la casa de las cañas, el casino de baile con la fuente del jabalí y el jardín de flores; un fortín en miniatura, una montaña artificial, la casa de la vieja, el abejero, ... Casi todas ellas edificaciones "fake" propias de la jardinería de la época y que contribuyen a crear un escenario paisajista espectacular. Es increible que sea una atracción turística de primer orden tan desconocida. Además hay un bunker de la guerra civil visitable en visitas guiadas.
