Casa de Campo, a 4,250-acre (1,722-hectare) urban park in Madrid, traces its origins to the hunting grounds of the Spanish Royal Family. Today, it serves as a verdant retreat for Madrileño families, especially on weekends. The park’s centerpiece is a vast boating lake, surrounded by lush greenery that invites walkers, joggers, cyclists, and skaters. Visitors can explore the sprawling landscape, enjoy a leisurely boat ride, or simply relax with a picnic, all within the bustling city limits.
