Madrid<\/strong> is the capital of Spain<\/strong> with the biggest number of sunny days a year. It is also one of the most dynamic and most beautiful capitals of Europe<\/strong>.\u00a0In addition, Madrid best describes the Spanish tradition, art and temperament.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It represents the history of success combined with the modern lifestyle and has the reputation of the city that never sleeps.\u00a0In this cosmopolitan city you will meet people from all over the world.<\/p>\n

In contact with nature<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is impossible to speak of Madrid and not to mention some of its sights such as the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor and Prado Museum.\u00a0Royal Palace – Palacio Real, the official residence of the Spanish monarchy, was built during the reign of the first Spanish king in the 18th\u00a0century.<\/p>\n

Today it is used as a museum, although some rooms are used for the state protocol.\u00a0Its luxurious rooms and halls take the visitor\u2019s breath away. Above all, a beautiful view from the king’s garden completes the experience of Madrid.<\/p>\n

Place to visit<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to many visitors the most beautiful square in Madrid<\/strong> is Plaza Mayor. It is placed in the heart of the old part of the town. Through the history, there were many trials and executions that were carried out here by the Inquisition. However, it was used for bullfighting and theatrical performances as well.\u00a0It is usually described as an elegant and a very cozy Square. Thus, it is not uncommon to see people sitting on the ground and enjoying the atmosphere.<\/p>\n

Museums and art galleries surround a beautiful promenade<\/strong> which was built by Carlos III. He wanted it to become a cultural and artistic center of the city.\u00a0Walking through this part of Madrid will feed all your senses whether it is day or night.<\/p>\n

Art lovers never miss visiting one of the largest museums, the Museo Del Prado. It holds the largest collection of Spanish art<\/strong> from the 12th\u00a0to 19th\u00a0centuries and one of the largest collections of European art.<\/p>\n

Although this is an elegant metropolis with magnificent buildings, Madrid is in close contact with nature and it also provides the feeling that you have just arrived in a large park.<\/p>\n

Flamenco, opera, dinner<\/strong><\/p>\n

The biggest attraction of Madrid<\/strong> is reserved for the strongest people. However, it is one of the bloodiest forms of art – bullfights, or in Spanish, corrida de torros.\u00a0For Spanish people a bullfight is not a sport, it is an artistic spectacle.\u00a0The best bulls for fighting can be found in Las Ventas arena in Madrid.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, nightlife in Madrid<\/strong> is very rich.\u00a0People go out late, after 10 p.m. Hence this is one of the reasons for traffic jams late into the night.\u00a0You can find flamenco shows, concerts, operas, musicals and variety of dance performances in the clubs or you can go to the tapas bars to try their great ethnic cuisine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
