located on the side of the Tajo River , was built in 1561 by King Philip II as a royal summer residence. The palace was rebuilt by the Bourbon King Fernando VI in the 18th century after it was destroyed by fire. To the east lies the Parterre Garden, and to the north the Island Garden (located on an island). Further to the east lies the late 18th century Prince Garden with the smaller palace of Casa del Labrador. The town of Aranjuez(Spain), next to the palace, has several historical monuments as well.

I agree with Diane, and thank for the informative explanation, always nice to know not only what we are looking at, but where it is, etc. Nice shot!

What ever happened to the good ol' days?
Are these the back gardens? With the statue facing the house I figure this is the rear of the palace. Good focus all the way through. Would like to see some tight detail shots of the architecture and sculpture.
