The Palace on the Square
4 stops · 35 min · 606 m
Half an hour around one building: the square that named itself after what it demanded from the man upstairs, the plain palace a king's father paid for with a red pencil in hand, the tomb a republic cut into the royal forecourt, and the queen's private garden with its gate thrown open.
