Aranjuez Cultural Landscape, Royal cultural landscape in Aranjuez, Spain
The landscape features geometric gardens, ornamental fountains, and tree-lined paths along the Tagus and Jarama rivers near the Royal Palace of Aranjuez.
King Philip II established Aranjuez as a Royal Site in 1560, commissioning the construction of the palace and extensive waterworks using the rivers' resources.
The gardens contain the largest collection of cultivated trees from America and Asia in Europe, along with numerous fountains displaying scenes from Greek mythology.
The Royal Palace and gardens remain open from 10:00 to 18:00 during winter months and 10:00 to 20:00 in summer, with guided tours available throughout the day.
The Jardin de la Isla incorporates an artificial branch of the Tagus River flowing directly past the palace, creating an integrated water-garden system.
