Jardines de Sabatini is a stunning formal neoclassical garden located in front of the northern facade of the Royal Palace in Madrid. Established in the 1930s after the proclamation of the Second Republic, the gardens were built on the site of the former royal stables designed by architect Francesco Sabatini in the 18th century. The gardens feature well-manicured hedges, symmetrical geometric patterns, a pond, statues of Spanish kings, and tranquil pathways, making it a peaceful retreat to enjoy views of the palace. Opened to the public in 1978, Jardines de Sabatini is a significant cultural landmark in Madrid, reflecting the city's architectural heritage. Visitors can explore the serene environment daily, with free admission and easy accessibility.
