Grand architecture and countless fascinating museums in a gloriously sun-soaked setting - we are of course talking about the wonderful city of Madrid. Home to some of the most famous monuments in Spain, the vibrant appeal of the capital makes it a popular destination for holidaymakers the world over.
The city is the perfect getaway for tourists seeking a holiday with a difference. Not only are cheap flights to Madrid available throughout the year, they take just a matter of hours from even the further reaches of Europe. And the many fascinating points of interest in this vibrant and stylish capital city make it easy to understand why.
As soon as your flights arrive at Madrid Barajas Airport, you will be amazed by the sights on view from your window. The airport is located just 13km (8 miles) from the city centre and there are a number of ways that you can get there. You may consider using the Metro, a journey that takes approximately 30 minutes, a shuttle bus or even a taxi. A word of warning for anyone inclined to use a taxi. They may offer greater comfort and flexibility when it comes to arriving at your specific destination but be warned that your journey may take up to an hour as a result of the busy traffic in Madrid.
Once you have arrived at your hotel, you may wonder what form of transport to use during the rest of your stay. Like many holidaymakers stepping off flights to Spain, you may want to stretch your legs and explore the city by foot, something to which this city is well suited. Alternatively, the Metro is the most popular choice of transport for people visiting and living in Madrid, as evidenced by the fact that it is one of the largest such systems in western Europe.
Now that you know how to get around the city, which points of interest should make it on to your itinerary? If you want to relax after spending entirely too much time for comfort at airports while encumbered with your heavy luggage, pay a visit to the Parque del Buen Retiro. Here at Madrid's main park you will stumble across magnificent monuments, sculptures and lakes. If you book flights during the summer, you will even get to enjoy the free music concert held at the bandstand every Sunday.
As well as beautiful parks, the city has many fantastic museums. During your stay you may like to visit the Museo del Prado where you will find some of the best art collections from across Europe including works by Rembrandt, Pablo Picasso and Diego Velázquez. The city's museums are a great way to experience the Spanish culture that many of the works on display attempt to capture.
