"Wander through the cloisters of Monastery San Juan de las Reyes, and you'll be overcome with an immediate sense of calm. Entry to the monastery and gardens will set you back a couple of euros, but the peace of mind—especially after a hectic day of sightseeing—will be worth it. Religion and history buffs dominate the pathways, but any tourist will appreciate at least a few minutes in the complex, which offers an eye-opening look into the life of a Franciscan monk." - Ramsey Qubein
