Whilst I hate to see caged animals, more especially in a zoo, I do love the photos of Queen Sofia with the pandas. She seems like a real animal lover.

[Breffney]

The Spanish Royals seem to hold an awful lot of audiences at Zarzuela Palace. Is this strictly a Spanish thing or do other Royal Houses do likewise. ?

 

[maria-olivia]

The King of the Belgians is doing the same. He often hold his Audiences at Laeken Castle.
It is just on the opposite of the Belvedere Place where he lives
