Tired of the inner city Madrid winter? Then daytrip to El Escorial for the feast of Saint Sebastian on January 20. From the train station hike through the Parque y Jardines de la Casita del Principe to the Real Monasterio de San Lorenzo de El Escorial where you can get lost in the museum and adjoining well-manicured gardens. There are plenty of cafeterias around to build your stamina. #architecture #statue #art #gallery #monastery #museum #villagelife #elescorial #madrid #spain #travel #daytrip #wanderlust #curioushumanics
