On 11th March 2009 it was the final day of a driving vacation to central Spain. We had visited the cities of Cuenca, Toledo and Avila and finished in Segovia. On the final day we were taking a drive across the mountains back to Madrid,
We stopped first at the Royal palace of San Ildifonso o la Granga…
The Royal Palace is set in extensive gardens in the French style of Versailles that was built for Philip V in the early eighteenth century and remains today an official residence of the King of Spain. The Spanish Royal family used to like to leave Madrid in the baking hot summer months and take up residence in the mountains where the climate is cooler and more agreeable and looking around the place it was easy to see why.
