Such interesting places in Madrid as the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, the Royal Palace, the Alcalá Gate and other objects should certainly be visited by an inquisitive tourist.
Unusual sights of Madrid
- Fountain "Fallen Angel": the basis of the composition is the fountain - it is decorated with an unusual sculpture of Lucifer, depicted as an angel expelled from heaven to earth.
- Palace of Santa Cruz: Unique in that it does not look like a palace - it looks almost the same as the other brick buildings in the city that are nearby. Previously, it housed a prison, and now it is the Spanish Foreign Ministry.
- Harmful Passenger: This monument was erected at Barajas Airport to target passengers who do not want to pay for excess baggage.
What interesting places to visit?
Judging by the reviews, guests of the capital of Spain will be interested in visiting the Prado Museum (visitors are invited to look at Spanish, Italian, painting of the Flemish and Dutch schools) and the Jamon Museum (on the ground floor you can buy meat, cheese, freshly baked bread and taste the purchased products by going to bar, and on the second - enjoy delicacies at a local restaurant).
Cibeles Palace is interesting for tourists for its souvenir shops, reading room, exhibition halls (the themes of exhibitions are constantly changing), recreation areas (comfortable sofas and Internet access are available for guests), a gourmet restaurant (while enjoying the taste of dishes, at the same time you can view the Cybele fountain, since the windows of the fountain “look” at the Cibeles square), as well as an observation deck (open on Tuesday-Sunday), from where beautiful Madrid panoramas open up.
On Sundays and holidays, it makes sense to drop by the El Rastro flea market to buy your favorite items - old books, maps, Andalusian lace fans, silver cutlery, shawls and shawls, antique china, knives and blades from Toledo.
It will not be superfluous to visit the Prince of Anglon's garden - here everyone will be able to walk along the pedestrian paths and settle in places of rest - gazebos, taking pictures and admiring at the same time a small but pretty fountain and flowers, trees and shrubs planted in the garden.
Looking to satisfy your hunger at the oldest food restaurant in the world? Stop by the Guinness Book of Records, Sobrino de Botin. Here you can not only enjoy fried suckling pig or lamb (the dishes are cooked in a 300-year-old oven), but also learn the history of the establishment, which was once a tavern.
The Casa de Campo Park is a place worth going for attractions, a children's area, an artificial lake, a zoo, the “Grand Avenue” area (famous for cafes and shops), regular performances and concerts.
