Spanish term or phrase: ilustrado
Cuando Carlos IV era Príncipe de Asturias, mientras reinaba su padre Carlos III, creó este lugar mágico en el que plasmó sus inquietudes juveniles y su amor por Aranjuez. Acompañando a los meandros del río, está formado por una docena de jardines entrelazados donde el mundo se convierte en un juego sin reglas, en un ambiente a la vez galante e ilustrado, lleno de caprichos pero también de experimentos botánicos.
