Pełny opis

Veteran travel writer and Madrid authority Annie Bennett takes you to the 'musts': the newly refurbished Museo del Prado with its masterpieces of European art; Las Ventas, the mecca of bullfighting; the Thyssen-Bornemisza and Reina Sofia collections, representing European and modern Spanish movements respectively. Don't miss out on some of the hidden gems, including visiting Goya's tomb and shopping Rastro's flea markets. The book is divided into chapters by neighborhood, beginning with the bustling ancient core around Plaza Major and the Old Town and working its way out, with chapters including the Royal Palace and Opera District; Downtown Madrid; the Paseo del Prado; Around Plaza Santa Ana; The Retiro Park and Around; the Salamanca District; the Paseo de la Castellana; the Plaza Espana and Western Madrid; and, then Excursions near the city. Sprinkled throughout you'll find special features on historical and cultural topics (Spanish dance, and the secret to making the best paella); mapped walking tours (a stroll around Plaza Major); and, specially commissioned 3D artwork (Royal Palace, the Prado). Experiential sidebars abound, including one on learning flamenco, one on attending a Moorish hamam (steam bath), and one with tips on staying with Spanish families. Vivid, specially commissioned photographs by acclaimed Spanish photographer Tino Soriano provide a fabulous sense of place, and maps designed by NG assure you'll always find your way. A hefty history and culture chapter primes you on Madrid's rich heritage, while a detailed Travelwise tells you how to get around and provides the author's pick of hotels and restaurants.
