// Rooftop bar // Few places in Madrid have an aura as magical as the Royal Palace. Right in front of this emblematic building we find the Terrace of the Gardens of Sabatini, ideal to contemplate the sunset looking at the horizon and see how the tones of the sun that disappears mix with the green of the vegetation.
