The green spaces comprising the ensemble of the Retiro Park, the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Paseo del Prado in the heart of Madrid are the main asset of this Landscape of Light, an exceptional concentration of museums, cultural centres, and venues dedicated to Art and Science. The result is a powerful beacon of light and knowledge.
Its status as the first tree-lined boulevard in Europe makes it an exceptional urban landmark and a universal model.
Its significance and characteristics make Paseo del Prado and Retiro Park a community site of great value for culture and society.
