Yes, the beautiful gardens of Aranjuez must have been inspiration for that wonderful musical masterpiece. The Concierto de Aranjuez is a very familiar work but I had no idea that Rodrigo composed it while in Paris! I read in wikipedia that on 30 December 1991 Rodrigo was raised into the Spanish nobility by King Juan Carlos I with the hereditary title of Marqués de los Jardines de Aranjuez (English: Marquis of the Gardens of Aranjuez), title later inherited by his daughter. Thanks for the question that prompted me to learn more about this great Spanish composer!

He also compsed another piece titled SPRINGTIME IN ARANJUEZ.

Is there any connection between this gorgeous site and a spanish guitar piece titled CONCIERTO DE ARANJUEZ by the Spanish composer Juaquin Rodrigo? It was composed in 1939. Since I'm crazy about classical music, I've been listening to it off 'n on for many years.
