Palau Reial de Pedralbes, Royal palace in Pedralbes district, Barcelona, Spain.

The palace features symmetrical architecture with white walls, grand staircases, and expansive gardens covering multiple terraces around the main building.

Originally a 17th-century country estate, Count Eusebi Güell transformed the property before gifting it to the Spanish Crown in 1918 for royal residency.

The palace grounds contain botanical gardens designed by Nicolau Rubió i Tudurí in 1924, incorporating geometric patterns and Mediterranean plant species.

Located at Avenida Diagonal 686, visitors can reach the palace via Metro Line 3, stopping at Palau Reial station in Les Corts district.

The gardens house a hidden fountain created by Antoni Gaudí, which remained concealed by vegetation until its discovery in the 1980s.
