Madrid Tourist Circuit






Madrid is even richer with the circuits and excursions throughout its Community. Reliving Cervantes and the Cisneros in Alcalá de Henares declared World Heritage, overwhelmed by the lovely Jardines Reales de Aranjuez and the soft murmur of its fountains.

Bewildered by the Monasterio del Escorial, a solid and impressive building with an overwhelming soberness and austerity.
Travelling in time at the charming Plaza Mayor de Chinchón with its irregular surface, where we can find two and three floor houses with extended balconies.

Circuits as the one from the Monasterios along the beautiful landscapes of the high basins of the Lozoya and Manzanares river.

Castles, fortresses and campaniles are a symbol of the Christian Reconquest after the arrival the Muslims to the Iberian Peninsula. Madrid was a passage from the Guadamarra Sierra to the Tagus River, where we can find about twenty of these naval constructions.
The Mudéjar Circuit, the Religious Museums Circuit, the Imperial Circuit are a few examples, but there is a lot more to be seen.
