Overview of your Madrid tour:

Are you an art lover? If so, this is the right tour for you! Prado (name of the most outstanding painting gallery in Spain) means "meadow". El Prado used to be an area of orchards and meadows to go for a stroll, and today is an Art Walk. Retiro (name of the most famous park in Madrid) means "retreat". In the past this park was the private garden of the palace where the Spanish kings retired to rest. Just like other big European museums (Louvre, Uffizi), the Prado has its origin in the hobby of collecting that the Spanish kings have had along the centuries. In the most important painting, there is a young Spanish princess waiting for you to know about her sad story. After Prado, we will head for the historical park. It's the city's lung. It belonged to the Spanish Monarchy until 1868, when it became a public park. It is one of my favourite spots in the city. It reminds me of my childhood because my parents used to take me here to watch the animals when the zoo was located inside the park!
