We went here the day after the Prado and were enthralled again! The collection is so different to the iconic gallery, but just as lovely in my opinion. It was quite a bit quieter too which is always a plus in my book.

This complex is absolutely magnificent! The huge facade is completely mad but definitely eye-catching. The Municipal Museum of Contemporary Art was great too, certainly a place well worth visiting.

You can't come to Madrid and not go here, can you? I was totally taken with it, the collection in general and the building were both superb. I loved the Velazqeuz and Goya art the best I think because I haven't had much chance to see anything by them and it was a real treat.

It is one of the most important art galleries of the world. it exhibits paintings by Goya, Velázquez, Murillo, Zurbarán, El Greco, Ribera, Titian, Boticelli, Tintoretto, El Bosco, Rubens, Van Dyck, Poussin and Durer. Actually it was a Carlos 3 commissioned Juan de Villanueva which was converted to art gallery in 1819. The collection is really very good. The people who are interested in art they will really like this gallery.
