To enter this impressive palace is to travel through our history over the last eleven centuries. Since the Emir Mohamed I decided to build an Alcazaba to defend himself from the Christians, it became the residence of all the monarchs who passed through here. From the kings of Castile, to those of the House of Austria when the building was already an Alcazar, until it became the palace that we know today thanks to the first Bourbon king of Spain, Felipe V. Alfonso XIII was the last monarch to live here. The architect Bernini was inspired by the Louvre in Paris for the construction of the Royal Palace. Each of the official rooms is decorated differently, according to the tastes and needs of each monarch.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The 10 essential rooms<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1057 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid.jpg\" alt=\"Main stairs leading to the Royal Palace of Madrid\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.madridactiva.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/Escalinata-Principal-Palacio-Real-Madrid-681x454.jpg 681w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Palace has more than 3,000 rooms, although only about 18 are visited, all located on the first floor. The visit begins in the <strong>Main Staircase <\/strong>presided over by a sculpture of Charles III. It has 70 steps and was designed by Sabatini. The main rooms can be accessed from here.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Halberdiers' Hall <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It was conceived as a ballroom and gala dining room. It was Charles III who converted it into a hall for the halberdiers\u201c guard.  Since 2015, the painting by Antonio L\u00f3pez \u201dThe Family of Juan Carlos I\" has been on display here.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> 2.

Gasparini Hall<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The most striking feature is its ornate, rococo-style decoration, together with chinoiserie details and the walls upholstered in silk with silver thread. Here you will find Goya's portraits of Charles IV and his wife Maria Luisa of Parma.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> 6. Porcelain Room<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Decorated exclusively with porcelain making a trellis in the shape of a vine, it was the dressing room of King Charles III.<\/p>\n<h3><strong> 7.
