Often overlooked by visitors, the Campo del Moro actually is a well-maintained park at the foot of the Royal Palace offering a break from the city frenzy, as well as view up the palace.
In later times, the area below the Alcázar was used as hunting ground. After the Alcázar was consumed by fire in the 18th century, construction of the Royal Palace started. Around this time, developing the fields at the foot of the Royal Palace was also considered. Developing Campo del Moro was not easy, both for lack of water, despite the proximity of the Manzanares river, and for the steep inclination of the terrain. For some time, they were used as truly royal playground for the young royalty. It was not until the mid-19th century that the Campo del Moro area was seriously developed into a park.
