Wow! I love history too, loved the way you energized the stories, so professionally done. I think you should have a traveling history segment channel. I'm impressed with the quality, editing and energy you conveyed while telling the story. You're a natural at this, honestly, if I had seen this video for the first time not knowing it was from you. I would've though it was done by BBC or the history channel. Wow, I can't say enough, I was blown away, kudos to you! Keep up the good work. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you and Yoli.

There are some incorrect information. For example, the Royal Palace was last inhabited in 1936 by Manuel Azaña, 2nd president of the 2nd Republic. And also there are some quite interesting historical details that are missing. For instance, the sculpture of Felipe IV was casted by Tacca, the math was from Galileo, and the drawing, by non other than Velázquez. About the Tower of Lujanes (9:11), it was used (allegedly) as a state prison for guarding Francis I of France (who was taken prisoner in the battle of Pavía).
