LA ROSALEDA ll PARQUE DEL RETIRO MADRID

Описание: La Rosaleda Retiro Park.
The Rose Garden of El Retiro takes on all its splendor in the months of May and June, when the roses bloom. Designed by Cecilio Rodríguez, Major Gardener of the Villa, in 1915, in imitation of those of other European cities, it has more than 4000 rose bushes.

The initiative was the then mayor of Madrid, Carlos Prats, who wanted to give a more elegant air to this part of the park. Before the Rose Garden, originally called "Rosería", in this place was the statue of the Marquis of Salamanca that today adorns the square of the same name and before there was even a pond that froze every winter and served the people of Madrid to skate on ice.
