A serene 18th-century botanical garden adjacent to the Prado, with over 5,000 plant species arranged across terraced beds, a cactus greenhouse, and a bonsai collection. It's a genuine local escape that most tourists walk past on their way to the museums, making it unusually peaceful. Entry is just a few euros and the combination of historic garden design and rotating art installations makes it worth an hour of anyone's afternoon.
