Transportation


Madrid Barajas Airport (MAD)
Distance: 7 miles east of the city.
Shuttle buses are frequent, and there are always taxis available.

Driving in Madrid is dreadful. Streets are always crowded and traffic can be dangerous. About the only parking is in high-priced garages.

Bus and Metro service is fast and inexpensive. Taxis are also inexpensive, but be sure that the meter is turned on when you get in. For trips outside Madrid, Spain has very good train service.

Tourism



Madrid oozes charisma and it’s apparent from every angle. Immediately upon arriving in Madrid travelers will be captivated by this Spanish city’s charm.

 

Madrid is a lively metropolis and popular cultural destination with an ideal climate of warm dry summers and cool winters. Many of the historic neighborhoods and streets have been preserved as well as such landmarks as the Royal Palace of Madrid, the Teatro Real, the National library building and the renovated Villahermosa Palace.

The Golden Triangle of Art is a major tourist destination consisting of the Prado Museum, Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza, and Reina Sofia Museum.

·         

Madrid has many lovely parks, of which the foremost is the Parque del Retiro. Originally the private gardens of King Philip IV, the park consist of 350 acres of formal gardens, fountains, lakes, sculpture, playgrounds, and outdoor cafes.

         


El Rastro is one of the best flea markets in Europe. If you like flea markets, you’ll find bargains here.

 

 



Bullfighting is a national passion; if you are interested, you must visit Las Ventas, the main bull ring. But even if you do not like this activity, you can visit it (when there are no bullfightings!), because it is a very nice and traditional building.

 

 

 

There is so much more! We suggest you visit one of the travel sites online.
