To commemorate the battle "San Quintin" and to locate the remains of his dead father The Emperor Charles V, Philip II ordered the construction of El Escorial Monastery, considered as a temple, austere Royal residence and Pantheon for Kings.

The Monastery is a real symbol of Spanish power from the 16th Century. The construction was focussing on sense, symmetry and balance, keeping in all cases the exposure for the Renaissance style. The pictorial and sculptural importance is also great. Your experienced guide will take you for a tour to Austria's Palace, Pantheons of Kings and Infants, Chapters Rooms and Basilica.

Located 6 miles (9.5 kilometers) north of El Escorial lies the Valley of the Fallen, a vast Basilica excavated from the inside of a mountain, on top of which looms a gigantic granite cross standing at 492 feet (150 meters) high. This monument was built by General Franco to remember the dead of Spain's Civil War. The entire complex is surrounded by a landscape of exquisite beauty. Enjoy a guided tour inside the Basilica.
