El Escorial



El Escorial is the largest building in all of Spain.  It was built in 21 years in the 1500's, which is impressive when considering most large buildings were built over a span of hundreds of years.  Inside the building there is a library, a palace, a monastery  a basilica  an elementary school, and the tombs of nearly all of Spain's royalty.  

Once again, we weren't allowed to take photos inside the building.  Bummer.
