  • This monument has a beautiful underground church with 260 metres long, and a cross with 150 metres high. Franco is buried in this church.
    The cross has splendid figures in its basis. You can go there and appreciate the sigth over the Guadarrama mountain.

  • The Escorial is amazing. This monastery has an Architecture Museum, a Painting Museum, the Kings' Pantheon, a basilica, a library, etc, etc.
    The monastery's construction started in 1562, by decision of King Felipe II, who died in the Escorial at 1598.

  • We go there with our children but we would like to go there alone. This park is not only for children. The adults have so or more fun than the kids.
    The park is divided in: Hollywood Boulevard, Warner Bros. Studios, DC Super Heroes World, Old West Territory and Cartoon Village.
    The park has many atractions, for adults and for children. Have fun!
