Jardín del Príncipe, Aranjuez, Royal garden in Aranjuez, Spain
The Prince's Garden extends between Queen Street and the Tajo River, featuring geometric paths, fountains, statues, and numerous botanical species across its grounds.
King Charles IV initiated the garden's creation in the 18th century, incorporating previous designs and commissioning architect Francisco Sabatini to oversee the project.
The Chinese area, designed by Juan de Villanueva, includes a classical temple, Chinese pagoda, funeral urn near a grotto, and an obelisk by the pond.
The garden opens daily with specific seasonal hours, offering guided tours through its different sections and providing informational panels about the local flora.
The Swiss Mountain observation point, completed in 1826, sits at the highest elevation of the garden, providing views over the entire landscaped grounds.
