Madrid is the capital and largest city of Spain, located in the heart of the country. It serves as the political, economic, and cultural centre of Spain. The city is renowned for its world-class art museums, including the Prado Museum, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, and the Reina Sofia Museum. These institutions house an extensive collection of Spanish and international art. Madrid is famous for its vibrant nightlife, with a plethora of bars, clubs, and live music venues. The nightlife scene often starts late, with locals enjoying tapas and drinks before heading to the clubs.
Summer (June to August) can be very hot, with temperatures reaching up to 40°C. However, this is also when the city is quieter as locals head to the coast.
Lunch is typically served between 2-4 PM and dinner from 9-11 PM. Adjust your schedule for late dining.
Embrace the local tradition of tapas, where small dishes are shared with drinks, often late into the evening.
Madrid is generally safe, but be cautious of pickpockets, especially in crowded areas and on public transport.
