The green zones of Madrid

Authors

  • María del Carmen Ariza Muñoz

Abstract

Between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries, the green zones of Madrid were greatly increased. This was a little «villa», with a variegated and arid urban centre, in which the only green zones were the geometric gardens and the vegetable gardens of its private houses and convents. At the same time, the «villa» was surrounded by vast «Reales Sitios>,. Following as in the tradition begun by king Charles III at the end of the eighteenth century by his setting out of wooded walks and refashioning of the Salas del Prado, where he laid out the Botanical Gardens, during the nineteenth century, the City Council gave to the «villa» many wooded streets, squares and large public parks, in wich were mixed geometric and English Gardens, as was fashionable during that period.
