Modern Madrid or Bourbon Madrid, East of the old town once stretched the idyllic district of Prado (meadow). In the 16th century a monastery was built here, which the Habsburgs later expanded into a palace. The former palace garden is now open to the public as Retiro Park. The Bourbon rulers, Carlos III, expanded the city in this direction and built magnificent squares with fountains, a triumphal arch and the later Prado Museum, one of the most important art museums in the world, around the Paseo del Prado.
