Hello again!
My name is Diana, I am from Madrid and an art historian. I have several different tours here at guruwalk. I want to introduce you to my new tour where the most important thing is the great stories...of our favorite park: El Retiro. The 19th century in all its splendor!
I continue with a brief to get into the situation:
ONCE UPON A TIME…
A composer of zarzuelas, a general eager to protect his queen, an angel who fell from heaven, two lovers on their first date, a hidden treasure...
A doctor who is also a philosopher, Hercules and Venus, a monk who taught the deaf and mute to communicate, and many other characters who will help us understand part of our history and our Madrid and Spanish art.
Accompany me through the wonderful 19th century and tour our lung of Madrid: El Retiro, with the help of a sculpture lover.
