Templo de Debod y Jardines art_and_culture

The Gardens were designed in 1968 by Manuel Herrero Palacios to place in them the Temple of Debod, donated to Spain by the Egyptian government. From here you can contemplate the famous cornice of the Manzanares, with the Royal Palace, the Casa de Campo and, possibly, the most beautiful sunsets in Madrid. 💡Curiosities The funerary temple, more than 2000 years old, was rescued from the waters of the Aswan Dam by a team of Spanish archaeologists, brought stone by stone and rebuilt in its current location after the Egyptian government gave it to Spain as a gift. It was installed with the same orientation it had in its place of origin.
