Cecilio Rodríguez Garden

About This Place

The Jardines de Cecilio Rodríguez is one of the hidden gems of Madrid's Retiro Park — a formal Andalusian-style garden featuring peacocks that roam freely among ornamental flowerbeds, fountains, geometric hedgerows, and terracotta pots. Named after the head gardener who designed it in the early 20th century, the garden is enclosed by high walls that give it a secret, tranquil atmosphere away from the bustle of the main park. Entry is free.
