We spent a peaceful afternoon wandering Madrid’s Royal Botanical Garden. From the Puerta Norte entrance we explored terraces, bonsai trees, and historic greenhouses, all just steps from the Prado.

Step inside Duenas Convent in Salamanca to explore its historic cloisters, fascinating artworks, and the nuns’ famous homemade cookies. A charming detour worth discovering.
