The Royal Palace of Madrid, known as Palacio Real de Madrid in Spanish, is the official residence of the royal family of Spain; however, today, it is usually only used for official, state ceremonies. With over three thousand rooms, it is actually one of that largest royal palaces that is still in use today, in all of Europe. The good news is, many of these rooms are open to the public – and we highly recommend paying this iconic landmark a visit. If you are visiting Madrid during the peak season of summer, you may want to purchase your tickets online in advance, to avoid long queues.
