The first stage of the journey, I start with my friend George in Madrid, we went lot of places in Madrid and it is all wonderful.
The first place that we went in Madrid is Museo Nacional del Prado, the Museo Nacional del Prado was one of the most famous place in Madrid. It is considered as one of the greatest museum in the world, and it has the most comprehensive and authoritative collection of Spanish paintings. The Prado museum in Madrid houses the most complete collection of Spanish paintings from the 11th to the 18th century, many of them the work of world-class masters such as El Glengo, Velazquez, Goya, El Bosco, Titian, van Dijk or Rembrandt. If you want to learn some history about Spanish art, that would be your top option to go.
If you want to buy your tickets information on 902 10 70 77.
the second place we went in Madrid is Puerta del sol, Puerta del sol is the center of Madrid, but the gate named puerta del so demolished in 1570. The square is now semicircular, surrounded by five buildings, most of which are department stores, fashion houses, coffee bars and hotels. On the west side of the square is a famous sculpture “bear and heather”, which is the emblem of Madrid. This square is not only the geographical “center” of Madrid, it is also the political centre of Madrid. The first law passed by the Spanish parliament was published in the piazza del sol. That’s why it should be consider as one of the top three place people should see in Madrid.
You don’t need to buy tickets to see the square.
The third place, Alcala Gate, Alcala Gate was built up in 1788 on the orders of Carlos III, to memory “the greatest mayor of Madrid”. It is where people hold social activities. At night lights are lit around alcala and the surrounding buildings are beautiful. Serrano avenue, just north of the plaza, it is where luxury shops gather in Spain. If you want to visit Alcala Gate, I suggest you to visit after lunch, you can shop around it. When the neon light start shining, it will be a grade experience to go across the Alcala Gate.
