Aranjuez is a gorgeous town located along the banks of the picturesque River Tagus, just south of the city of Madrid. The city, which was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in its entirety in 2001, is best known for its stunning 16th-century Royal Palace, which showcases French, Rococo, Elizabethan, Chinese, and Moorish design elements. On the palace's grounds, the stunning JardÃn de la Isla showcases ornamental plantings, while the Prince's Garden is home to the Neoclassical-style Casa del Labrador and and a Chiniese-style pavilion. Other historic attractions include the Mariblanca Church of San Antonio, the Plaza del Toros, and the Baroque-style Old Quarter of Aranjuez, which has been declared as an Historic Artistic Monument in its entirety for its splendid mansions, convents, and courtyards.
