Art and Culture in Madrid
"Although it’s still the official residence of Spain’s Royal family, none of its members actually lives there, so a visit is more about the history of the palace and the country than spotting the King and Queen. The Royal Palace is the most emblematic building in Madrid, so make sure you don’t just admire it from the outside — go in to see some of the 3,000 rooms including the Royal Kitchen, Royal Armory, Painting Gallery, a Hall of Mirrors very similar to the one in Versailles, plus the magnificent gardens. The large courtyard in front of the building is the stage for the spectacular Changing of the Guard, which takes place every Wednesday and Saturday from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM." - MATADOR_NETWORK
