Dazzling and eminently cultural, Madrid impresses with the beauty of its architecture and the diversity of its riches. As the capital of Spain, it is a cosmopolitan destination of the highest order, combining history, art and shopping.
A huge showcase of the most beautiful Spanish art, Madrid is undeniably "the place to be" for the curious and lovers of beautiful monuments. Thanks to its strong cultural influence and its attractiveness, the Spanish capital is a very popular destination, especially among young people.
If there is one site that is not to be missed in Madrid, it is the Plaza Mayor: built in 1690, it is the soul of Madrid and its main asset. Here, Madrilenians and visitors alike like to meet to chat, stroll, read or have a drink. This imposing square, on which the statue of Philip III on his horse is enthroned, is surrounded by terraces and cafés that are often crowded on sunny days and during the Christmas market, as well as splendid buildings such as the Bakery House, the Butcher's House and the Cutlers' Arch. A little further on is the famous Royal Palace of Madrid: built in the 17th century, this absolutely magnificent palace is one of the most beautiful in Europe. We recommend a visit to discover its magnificent rooms such as the room of King Charles III, the Hall of Mirrors or the Hall of Columns. After touring the building, don't leave without taking the time to stroll through the Sabatini and Campo Del Moro gardens for a green break before returning to the streets of Madrid. If you love gardens, then the Royal Botanical Garden is a must-see on your list of things to see during your stay: attracting many botanical enthusiasts every year, this heavenly garden, a haven of peace and the capital's green lung, is home to hundreds of areas of flowers, trees and exotic plants from all over the world. Right next to it is the most famous museum in Madrid: the Prado Museum. Located on Paseo Del Prado, it is one of the largest museums in the world thanks to its breathtaking collections of paintings ranging from the 14th to the 19th century. Bosch, Goya and Velázquez in particular have a place of choice in the aisles of this museum, which in addition to its paintings, houses an impressive collection of prints and drawings. Tip: note that this museum is free for minors, and free for everyone during the week between 6pm and 8pm. Still in the category of museums, the Queen Sofia Museum is worth a visit: both a national museum and an art center, this unusual place houses one of the most famous works of Pablo Picasso: Guernica. You should know that this museum also opens its doors for free, from 7 pm to 9 pm on weekdays: a good reason not to miss it! Opera lovers should not miss the "Teatro Real" (Opera House), located in front of the Royal Palace: built between 1817 and 1850, it is one of the most famous opera houses in Europe. The Almudena Cathedral of Gothic and classical style, the Real Madrid stadium (Santiago Bernabéu), the famous Puerta Del Sol and its statue of the Bear and the Tree, the Thyssen Bornemisza Museum, the Retiro Park, the Crystal Palace, the Las Ventas bullring, the Temple of Debod and its Egyptian remains of more than 2200 years, the Velasquez Palace, the "Gran Via" and the Monument of Alfonso XII are also worth seeing! The Palacio de Cibeles (Palace of Cybele), which today houses the headquarters of the Madrid City Council, will also delight architecture fans: its cultural center, its majestic crystal gallery and its 360° panorama from its terrace make it one of the emblematic sites of the city: a must-see! From the Cybele square, you can enjoy beautiful views of the fountain of the same name, the Bank of Spain and the Alcala Gate.
While you are in Madrid, don't miss a flamenco show. Flamenco, which is part of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage, has its roots in the capital of Madrid. In theaters, auditoriums, tablao's or street concerts, flamenco permeates the streets of the Spanish capital with its bewitching and contagious magic. Another local attraction: the changing of the guard (as in London) in the royal district! Every first Wednesday of the month, in front of the Royal Palace, 400 men and 100 horses stroll under the eyes of the passing bystanders, to the sound of drums and trumpets. Another must-see in Madrid: shopping of course! Capital of fashion, Madrid is very popular for its Salamanca district and its dozens of boutiques, especially in Serrano street.
Finally, if you want to have a wide view of the city, go to the Circulo de Bellas Artes: thanks to its panoramic roof, it offers incomparable views of all Madrid! We recommend going there at dusk for an unforgettable sunset! Finally, the Chueca and Austrias neighborhoods will delight night owls in search of trendy parties, while the San Miguel market, La Latina market and the tapas bars of the Rastro (flea market) will satisfy gourmets in search of local flavors.
