Retiro Park is home to Madrid's Christmas Wish Tree, a decoration with a twist. The 30-metre hollow cone is gradually filled with balloons, each with a New Year's wish attached, which are released into the sky on 6 January.
Elves and giant snails wander around the tree, providing good cheer and balloons to all who visit. Place your balloon inside the tree and you never know, your wish may just come true.
