In a city that never sleeps where hustle and bustle is an integral part of everyday life, Plaza de Oriente is a haven of peace and tranquillity. The landscaped gardens are enclosed in a kind of semi-circular design. It's a leafy area with plants and trees beside broad walkways, one of which is lined with the statues of Spanish kings from the medieval period.

 

There are 44 statues of Spanish monarchs lining the square. They range from the Gothic period up to the time when the country was reunified following the defeat of the Moors in 15th century. They also seem a little out of proportion, but this is simply because the statues were originally designed to be installed on top of the palace. However, the architects felt that the statues were too heavy and they were left at ground level.

 

Taking centre stage of Plaza de Oriente is a huge statue of Felipe IV astride a horse that was modelled from an art piece by Veláquez. It stands on a large pedestal and is indeed a striking sculpture.

 

Its designer, Pietro Tacca, was afraid that the rearing horse could not be balanced properly, and that it would fall forward under its own weight. The famous Italian astronomer, Galileo Galilei, came to his rescue by suggesting that the front rearing part of the sculpture should be hollow, and therefore relatively light, with the back part solid to anchor the weight.

 

Plaza de Oriente was not finished in its present form until the reign of Isabel II. During this time the Teatro Real, the Royal Theatre, was also built opposite the palace on the east side of the square.

 

Madrid. Spain.

This portrait was taken in Café de Oriente, an emblematic cafe in one of the nicest areas of Madrid- next to the royal palace and the opera.

Blanca used to live in the area when she was in her twenties, and loves the fact that the same cafes and restaurants are still up and running today.

You will open a new chapter in your life...
