Madrid - The Prado

Today we had tickets to The Prado Museum. It was a bit rainy all day, so a good day to be indoors. We took the Metro to get there. On our way we noticed that we started traveling in the opposite direction that we started, but hadn’t gotten off the train. After talking with some locals, we found out that in order to continue straight on this train, we had to get off and take a different train. In all the subway systems we’ve been on around the world, none of us had ever encountered that before.

The Prado is very well done. They had a large collection of Spanish artists I’d never heard of, and many excellent statues. Pictures weren’t allowed, so I don’t have any of the art.En savoir plus
