Real Madrid Museum

In the magnificent Bernabeu, this museum is everything you need to know about the iconic football club. I even learned that they have their very own basketball team!!

Puerta de Alcala

Tjis is a must see... It's not just a gate, its a witness to how mighty Madrid was back in its golden age. An easy rival to the arc de Triomphe.

Prado

The Prado must be one of the very best art galleries in Europe. Especial highlights include Goya's black paintings which are really creepy and of course Velazquez's paintings.

National Archeological Museum

posted by DVC_Chris on 3 June 2009 at 00:48

When visiting Madrid, one of my favorite museums to visit has to be the National Archeological Museum itself. When I first arrived at the museum, I was impressed by the building itself which is a beautiful example of neoclassical architecture. My favorite part of the museum is the full replica that they have of the Altamira Cave, recreating the famous cave paintings.

Museo Naval

posted by DVC_Chris on 22 May 2009 at 13:32

For military history buffs, there is no better museum to visit in Madrid than the Museo Naval, which is dedicated to the long and illustrious history of the Spanish Navy. For many years, Spain was a sea power, with colonies in the Americas, and it took a large fleet to protect them. Visitors will learn about these ships, as well as the Spanish Armada.
