Amazing place. Definitely recommend to visit with children before 10-12 years. Beatiful shows. You can do pictures together with sea lion, dolphin, parrot, lemur. The park has beautiful territory and zoo. There are few restaurants on the park.

What a special place. So much fun! Negatives, its a little pricey, and they dont have a vast amount of animals. The pros, wow, the shows are phenomenal, especially the dolphin show. Amazing, just amazing. Yes its pricey, but honestly the shows itself make it worth it! Get over there. €20 cash or €17 (paid online) to touch a dolphin and have a photo (included) is such amazing value. You wont find better. So while its not a cheap day out, it's 100% worth it, and id go back again, and again.

Nice animal Park got discounted tickets so went with family. The dolphin and sea lion show were amazing definitely recommend going and seeing them. At the top. Is a great view of aqualandia which is right next door. Overall a good place to visit with family.

Pretty cool. We did combine tickets with Aqualandia. So we visited this place in the morning. We arrived about half past 10 which gave us time to look around and the watch the parrot show. Which was very informative. 2 of the parrots did not listen to the trainers and decided they were staying out just jumping on the rope. After that we headed to the sea lion show to watch some very happy sea lions and then the dolphin show, which has 8 dolphins doing tricks. The place is small so wouldn't recommend spending the whole day there as you can watch all the shows and see all the other animals in around 3 hours. Prices for photos with animals is around €20 euros I recommended paying for these before you enter the park.

In my opinion, Mundomar a bit too pricey, compared to Oceanografic in Valencia. However, dolphins did an amazing job performing, the instructors are great. Stunning view from the top! I liked it

It was a good day plenty to see and great shows.But don't bother with getting the VIP TOUR as you are unable to take Photos as they block you and say only me.The photographer was a bit rude and right in my face as I attempted to get a photo.

A great day was had by the whole family. The animals were amazing, well worth going to the shows, birds, sealion, and dolphin. There are other experiences which we didn't do this time. We purchased the combo ticket for mundomar and aqualandia, which was a good saving.

A brilliant day out for the whole family. We have two boys aged 6 and 7 and they both had an amazing time. We brought our own packed lunch after reading other reviews as the food in the park didn’t seem like the best option, and this turned out to be a smart decision as there are plenty of picnic areas available. We booked our tickets online which cost £109 for the four of us. On arrival, we rented a large locker for €10 (smaller ones are €7). They give you a PIN code printed on a receipt which is a bit odd, as it means you have to go into the water with a piece of paper to remember your code. It would make more sense if you could set your own code. We also paid for two sunbeds at €7 each and the inflatable ring floats came at an extra cost too. This felt like a bit of a rip off, as items like floats and sunbeds should really be included in the ticket price. This is the main reason we’ve given 4 stars instead of 5. That said, the park itself is spotless and very well maintained. The lifeguards, although quite young, did a fantastic job and we felt very safe letting the boys explore nearby. The children’s area is the best I’ve seen in any water park as it has a full section with obstacle courses, smaller slides and jumping platforms. We would definitely visit again for another family day out.

Great day out with the Grand kids here. Take your own drinks and food as the kiosk prices inside are a little hard on the wallet (€3.75) for a 1.5 ltr water that you can pick up for about 60 cents in the supermarket. €5.40 for a beer 🍺. Apart from that, it's a lovely park that kept the boys busy all day.

We visited on a Friday in August so was very busy as expected. However we found the park to be clean, well organised and we all had great fun, dragging the kids away after about 7 hours. Queues for some slides were 15-20 mins but plenty of shade and well mannered. Didn’t attempt to get a sun bed or picnic bench (which looked like you needed to be there early to get) - just sat on a towel on the grass which was fine. Lifeguards very professional and kept good order.

It was too crowded for me, even though we visited on a Wednesday. However, the kids had a lot of fun, which is the most important thing! We will come back! Food was available at affordable prices. What surprised me was that the lockers and lounges required payment.

Aqualandia in Benidorm is a great place and an absolute hit with kids—plenty of rides, pools, and attractions to keep the whole family entertained. The park is clean and well maintained, and overall it’s a fun experience for both children and adults. That said, the downside in high season is the waiting times. Some rides had queues of up to 90 minutes, which meant that even though we spent the whole day there, we couldn’t try everything we wanted. On-site food is also very expensive—for example, a gofre with just one scoop of ice cream was over €7. Security lockers cost €7, and hiring a large inflatable wheel is €8 plus a €2 deposit (though this does give you an advantage on Rapidos, where you can skip the queue). Overall, it’s still a great experience and the kids loved it, but the long waiting times and high prices take away from what could otherwise be a perfect day out.

Visited on: Friday, 29th August 2025 Such a great waterpark! The Rapids are especially good! I highly recommend. The “Black Hole” too is fun. ⚠️ SENSORY NEEDS: This ride is dark and may not be suitable for those with SN. For Food, I recommended the Snack Bar - see my other review for additional, and full details.

The place is big and theres plenty of rides and pools ! Very chill vibes although the food can always be better. Still a great time !

Levante beach was simply beautiful. It is well maintained, clean and safe. Sunbeds can be rented for only 6 euro for the day. Excellent place to relax.

Lovely beach but very busy. Chairs and umbrellas €6 each, you just sit down and someone comes round to pay. Close to shops you have people walking up and down selling cocktails and offering massages. A place with taps to wash the sand off your feet. A warning women do walk around and lounge top less if this offends anyone.

A great beach. However, it is rather populated with many tourists and locals making it rather busy. You can hire a sun-bed at only €12 overlooking the Mediterranean, turquoise, yet quite transparent sea. 🌊

I visited Platja de Llevant in Benidorm at the end of December, and the weather was surprisingly warm, not hot enough for a swim, but perfect to enjoy the sun and a long walk by the sea. The sky was clear, the water shimmered in deep blue tones, and the whole promenade was lively even in winter. Historically, Platja de Llevant has been one of the main symbols of Benidorm’s transformation. In the 1950s, this small fishing village began turning into one of Europe’s most famous seaside resorts, and this beach became the heart of that change, lined with hotels, cafés, and palm trees that still define the skyline today.

The beach is absolutely stunning, with its picturesque scenery that instantly captivates anyone who visits. The golden sand is soft and inviting, creating a perfect contrast against the deep blue sky. The ocean itself is crystal clear, reflecting the sunlight in shimmering patterns that dance across the water. The waves are gentle and soothing, making the beach a tranquil spot to relax and enjoy nature’s beauty. One of the highlights of this beach is the remarkably clean water. It’s so clear that you can see the seabed even from the shore, with fish occasionally visible as they swim by. The cleanliness of the water makes it perfect for swimming, wading, or just floating on the surface, letting the gentle waves carry you. In addition to the natural beauty, the beach offers convenient amenities like chair and sun umbrella rentals. This allows you to fully enjoy your time there without having to bring your own gear. You can easily rent a comfortable chair and a large umbrella to provide shade, making your day at the beach even more relaxing. Overall, the combination of breathtaking beauty and thoughtful conveniences makes this beach a perfect getaway.

Great Beach Fantastic beach very famous worldwide, the view on the buildings is incredible. Not the beach has all the expected amenities & lots of shops, cafes & restaurants around. The water is also really nice and this is what made this beach so fabulous.

My Days in Benidorm 🥰 🌸❣️ It was August, and Benidorm welcomed us with 41-degree weather 🥵. What wonderful days we had at the beach, strolling through its streets, trying out restaurants, watching the sunrise, or walking at night while enjoying the nightlife. We’d wake up early to enjoy the sea and walk along the sand. Each day was unique and amazing! Creating human connections, observing and learning about their lifestyle and culture made the experience even more enriching.

Old Town benidorm is a absolute gem , loads of shops bars and cafes it's more cultured than new benidorm and old town is more traditional, its definitely worth exploring plus there are two beaches a small cove beach and the large beach and the harbour

(Translated by Google) Good place to go on vacation. 5 minutes walk from the western and eastern beaches. The party area is very close too. It is also surrounded by central streets with a multitude of shops, bars, restaurants... (Original) Buen sitio para ir de vacaciones. A 5 minutos andando de las playas de poniente y de levante.

These open and free beaches inspired me while writing Waking Up – A Journey Towards a New Dawn for Humanity — a future where freedom and access belong to everyone.

Nice, huge beach. Big disappointment that you have to take own sunbeds and sunbrellas.

I personally didnt have a nice experience there. When we went there were a lot of seaweed washed up on shore and I could not enjoy the beach as much as I wanted. I might reconsider my opinion if I visit on another day, however it was a nightmare to step on the seaweed. It is a fine sandy beach, but it is overcrowded. I would not recommend it to people who dislike crowds. There are toilets and also foot washing devices.

Very nice beach lovely family place and clean.

Really enjoyed La Mata. We visited on a Wednesday and the market was on. It was huge. Struggled to get parked but once we did we stayed & had a fabulous day. Will definitely return.

My favourite beach in the region so far with little algae and lots of sand, it’s pleasant to swim there. But it is crowded in the summer and very difficult to park there even though it’s free

Pros: Good beach - long and wide. Clean, sandy. There is a nice park neighbouring the beach. A lot of cafe and restaurants close to the beach. Cons: No showers at all (( Not enough toilets and dressing rooms. Comparably crowded even in the end of May! I can't imagine what will be in the high season (July).

Absolutely brilliant place to spend a couple of hours. It's free to access but if you want to use the lift it cost €2.70 (can only pay by card). A few refreshment areas within the castle selling drinks and ice cream. Well worth a visit!

You have the option to go up the castle via the side walk (not very hard but neither easy) or take the lift (you need a ticket). If you go up via the park you can go down without the need to buying a ticket - pretty convenient. The lift is the best option for a hot or rainy day, or with limited mobility.

When visiting Alicante, it is essential to set aside half a day to explore this castle, and all its history, which is rich and varied. You will have the opportunity for an incredibly beautiful view of the city and the sea. We recommend from the bottom of our hearts.

When I visited Alicante, I’m so glad I took the time to explore this castle, it was honestly one of the highlights of my trip. The history is so rich and interesting, and walking through the different areas really makes you feel connected to the past. The views from the top are absolutely stunning; seeing the whole city and the sea from up there felt amazing. I truly recommend setting aside at least half a day for it. From my heart, this is a place you don’t want to miss.

The elevator up to Castille de Santa Barbara is access from the beach side. Cross the road towards the castle and you will see the entrance. The cost of the elevator is only a few euros per person well worth the spend. Take the elevator up, then do yourself a favor, and walk down through the tiny Pueblo (village) Barrio de Santa Cruz.

Fantastic views across the city of Alicante. Get there just before sunset to watch it setting in the West. We visited for a Wine tasting session in the evening, very popular so need to book well in advance.

The view is nice. There’s an elevator from the beach side — the ride costs €2.70.

Zenia Boulevard is a fantastic shopping experience! The mall has a great mix of shops for every taste, from fashion and homeware to electronics and gifts. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and the outdoor design makes it a pleasure to stroll around. The food court is excellent too, with plenty of choices to suit everyone – from quick bites to sit-down meals. A perfect place to shop, eat, and enjoy a great day out!

Really big shopping center where you will probably find what you are looking for. You just have to be careful at the first time visiting to find the right exit. From Torrevieja bus station bus "L" goes in front of the door

Nice shopping area that have many brand stores and much else. A plus for the very nice toilets but a minus for the restaurants (a bit pricey for what you get). Of course this is friendly to wheelchairs. There are also playgrounds for kids, they seem to love the water fountain.

Amazing shopping center that got everything you need. Open roof so you really get an amazing experience walking around the shopping center. Big name Stores and restaurants so you will definitely find something to buy. Plenty of restaurants to choose from for both lunch and dinner. They even have a playground for the kids with enough seating close by for the adults to sit down but still have a good view on their kids. You can even rent battery-powered cars for the kids to drive around the shopping center with the option for the parents to control the car with a remote.

Call out to all UK shopping centers. Visit this place to see how a shopping centre should be run. It's spotlessly clean, shops are full and not boarded up, free parking and it's packed full of shoppers. It's a great place to shop for clothes or food. Plenty of cafes and ice cream parlours, places for kids to play. Open until late in the evening for convenience after work. I've not heard a bad thing said about Zenia Shopping Centre.

Beautiful shopping centre! So clean and absolutely amazing for children, places to play at every turn. They even have little cars they can drive around to rent! Perfect for parents who want to go shopping but dread taking their kids who find it boring. Not here they won’t! 🥹

a good time to spend leisure time and buy things necessary for everyday life, also a large grocery store, where you can buy many different products. A large selection of clothes from the budget option to the expensive. A large selection of shoe stores. Many good cafes and restaurants. Having arrived here you can spend whole days :)

Beautifully kept, tranquil not at all busy, the peacocks were a lovely surprise with a very reasonably priced entrance fee

The hotel was chosen for its close proximity to the Teatro and the rooms set amidst a beautiful garden. We booked a Junior Suite which was a lovely stroll amongst the greenery. Extremely clean big bedroom with big bed, big tv and a big spa bath in the big bathroom. All staff were happy and helpful and cheerful. Breakfast was very good. Plenty for 4 courses if you're that way inclined! We didn't use the restaurant as we ate out but the bar and bar staff were good too. Excellent (yes) 'big' pool area adorned with lovely twinkling lights for the evening.

What a beautiful botanic garden set in the middle of Elche. All the specimen plants and trees were very well labelled. Admission is about 5 euros with a slight discount for pensioners. The only negative is the availability of parking resulting in circling the narrow streets of Elche several times. There is a large underground parking about 300 mtrs away but there is a hotel with the same name much closer that would b much closer

Tranquil, picturesque place with lots of palms from around the world, quite a variety of cacti, peacocks walking around, water features. All creates an atmosphere of joy, peace and tranquility. We love feeding peacocks as there is a special food available to buy next to the exit.

Beautiful park full of palm trees — a lovely place to visit if you’re in Elche. Peaceful, green, and perfect for a relaxing walk. 🌴

Beautifull park. Smaller that I expected but really well maintained.

This place is really special, unfortunately I only had 20 minutes here but could have spent hours strolling around. They have some amazing different palm trees, plants & all sorts of other species. There's also some cool peacocks around! It was around 6 euros to get in but truly worth it. If you like to take photos of those types of thing, you'd struggle to find somewhere better!

Murcia centro & cathedral are definitely worth visiting! Beautiful architecture and plenty of bars and restaurants to sit and watch the world go by. (Loves people watching) 👀 🤣

We loved our visit to the Catedral de Murcia! ⛪️ The architecture is absolutely breathtaking, with its mix of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque details—you can spend ages just admiring the façade and intricate doors. The plaza in front is vibrant and welcoming, filled with cafés and terraces where we enjoyed a hearty brunch while soaking up the atmosphere. ☕🥐 It was such a nice stopover in Murcia—easy to wander, beautiful to photograph, and full of charm. The cathedral itself is impressive inside and out, and the surrounding square feels like the heartbeat of the city. 🌞 If you’re traveling through Murcia, don’t miss this gem—it perfectly combines history, culture, and a relaxed Spanish vibe. Highly recommended for anyone passing by! 🌟

Beautiful cathedral with a fascinating mix of architectural styles visible from the outside. The details and decorations are absolutely breathtaking, and it really makes you appreciate these kinds of buildings that simply aren’t built anymore. Entrance is €5 for the cathedral alone or €7 if you want to visit both the cathedral and the museum. The downside is that in the museum almost all descriptions are only in Spanish, with just a few objects explained in English. For most of the exhibition you’ll need to rely on Google Translate.

Beautiful cathedral and square with nice options for tapas. We were lucky to visit on Sunday morning to enjoy the services .

The main attraction in Murcia is this magnificent cathedral. The facade has many saints and the structure has many architectural designs. Definitely a must visit.

Beautiful architectural masterpiece. Other elements of the area organically complements the cathedral

Magnificent building with very rich decorations and carvings. Do not miss the chain around the building.

An impressive place that proves luxury and indulgence are nothing new—they have existed at the highest level for centuries. A wonderful experience, especially considering the very reasonable entrance fee.

Impressively pretty inside, with nice flow to go between the rooms and adequate description in brochure. Good entrance fee. Quite compact, you can visit it all in ~45 minutes.

The 19th century Real Casino de Murcia in Murcia, Spain, is a private social club where the local elite could meet. It's still used for that purpose but tourists are also admitted for a fee. Entry to the Moorish Patio is through an Islamic-style horseshoe arch. The design of the Moorish Patio itself was inspired by the Alhambra in nearby Granada. Leaves of pure gold were used by the decorators. The ballroom features gold-coated bronze chandeliers decorated with Baccarat crystal made in Paris in 1886.

We had a long weekend in Murcia. The Old Town in Murcia City is the most wonderful place with so much to see, including the Real Madrid Club, ( nothing to do with football). It is an eclectic collection of the most wonderful, opulent rooms, and is a MUST visit if in Murcia City

Wow 😯 absolutely stunning building with beautifully decorated rooms and decor. The Arab entrance alone has 20,000 individual gold leafs adorning the walls. The ballroom is stunning as well as the English influenced library and Billiard rooms. A must see attraction for only 5 euros ( 3 if you are a retiree)

Just steps from the Cathedral, on the famous Calle Trapería, you can admire the splendid Royal Casino of Murcia. Its extraordinary beauty and elegant interiors earned it the title of National Historic Monument in 1983. Built in 1847 as a luxurious entertainment venue for the city's wealthy elite, it continues to serve this purpose today as a private club with highly select members. After extensive renovations, the casino became "Royal" in 2009, at the behest of King Juan Carlos I. The casino is open to the public, who, with an admission ticket, can access some of the sumptuous interior rooms, immersing themselves in the glittering past of the city's wealthy elite. Aesthetically, the entire building features an unusual combination of different styles from various eras, making it a unique monument. The sumptuous facade, designed by architect Pedro Cerdán Martínez, features classical and modernist decorations, resulting in a highly eclectic result. The entrance to the casino is the most fascinating space, a true Arab patio inspired by the most refined Moorish palaces, such as the Alhambra in Granada and the Alcazar in Seville. Other rooms worth visiting are: the English Library, entirely made of wood; the luxurious Ladies' Hall, with a splendid painted ceiling and gilded oval mirrors; the Pompeian Patio, decorated with classical columns and statues; the Ballroom, built between 1870 and 1875 in neo-Baroque style and adorned with gigantic chandeliers. In addition to visiting the casino's rooms, you can also visit the restaurant and bar and attend exhibitions, displays, and cultural events. Ticket 5€ per person.

If you are in Murcia... This is a must! Only €5 entry is so good for what you see. Instagram pics worthy.

A must visit!!! Absolutely brilliant, do go If you get the chance

Great to see the history and explore the caves. You get a complimentary drink at the end of your visit too which is nice. We went Easter weekend and it wasn't busy. The whole town is gorgeous.

A amazing place worth visiting. Got a chance to meet the legendary El Diablo in person. The place is preserved well. There is also lot of photos and antique stuff inside the cave. You also get a free beverage inside. A must visit if you are in Alcalá del Júcar.

Quirky place to go and check out. One drink is included in the entrance price, we all enjoyed a red vermout. We also met El Diablo himself, so you always have that as a possibility.

What a great place to explore! Not my first visit but was for my girlfriend. Great collection of typical Spanish antiques, covering everything from cabinets full of matches, medical equipment, typewriters, farm tools and machinery (to name a few artifacts), my favorite being a mini tractor type ploughing machine with what looks like grannies armchair sat on top for the operator 😂😂. Great value at €3 per person which includes a drink at the far side of the caves, really nice little bar overlooking the river at the mountains that surround Alcalá de Júcar. You can explore further the caves by walking up a 7 stories stairway, so take a deep breath before you do! The cave walkways are fascinating and you discover little nooks along the way. Another benefit is how cool temperature wise in there, especially when it was 40+ outside, so a welcome relief. The owner who is a spitting image of Salvador Dali complete with pointy mustache, there are plenty of photos of him with famous people along the caves, and we managed to grab one with him when we left. Great experience highly recommend!

It's worth to visit. Quite big cave, u can see the beautiful view through some windows(even in the toilet). Also drinks are included in the ticket. It's just 3€. No reason not to visit🤷‍♀️

A must visit when in Alcala del Jucar. Amazing cave museum with a bar. Friendly owner and his dog opens the door that links one side to the other. Only €3.50 including a drink at the bar.

Great place, reasonable price, best breakfast I had in Spain. The only downside are that the walls are thin and noise travels quite easily. Otherwise a very clean and relaxing hostel!

Very nice well presented hostal, I would highly recommend it. Thank you for the quality of your place.

Very clean and friendly family run hostel.

Very comfortable well located hotel

Very clean, quiet, breakfast included.

(Translated by Google) Highly recommended. I'm very grateful for the service I received throughout my stay, from check-in to departure. Professionalism and friendliness at the same time. It's a shame my stay was so short; I'll definitely return to the town and stay here again :-) (Original) Totalmente recomendable. Estoy muy agradecido por el trato recibido durante toda la estancia, desde el checking hasta mi partida. Profesionalidad y cercanía a la vez. Lástima que mi estancia fuera tan breve; volveré seguro al pueblo y volveré a alojarme aquí :-)

(Translated by Google) Quiet hostel in the town center. Everything was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the owner was very helpful. The shower worked perfectly, and one detail that won me over was the free makeup remover wipes, along with shower gel and shampoo. (Original) Hostal tranquilo en el centro del pueblo. Todo limpio, cama cómoda y el dueño muy servicial. La ducha funcionaba a la perfección y un detalle que me conquistó fue obsequiar al huésped con toallitas desmaquillantes, además del gel y el champú.

Beautiful place 👍👌 It is free so no tickets or reservations needed. Dogs allowed. Best for a long walk. There are lots of steps so not recommended for anyone with bone or joints problem.

Beautiful place, it's like a fairies forest!! I recommend to go not to go on sad seasons because the river flow decreases a lot. It is much better to go on spring!!

A truly magical experience, rich in ecology and natural beauty. Not too far from Cuenca and well worth a visit

Fantastic place to walk, as long as you like walking. My wife and I were the only two to walk all around it then joined up with the rest of the people.

Lots of parking at the entrance as well as at the restaurants across the road from the entrance. Simple circular walk.

It’s worth packing a light lunch to eat under the tall trees near the entrance and then walking to the waterfalls, then up to the top where the water emerges from the underground cave.

Es un lugar maravilloso. Recomiendo visitarlo en la época del deshielo cuando el verde se combina con blanco y la cascada es muy caudalosa. La distancia a la cascada es de solo 260 m desde el parking y cuenta con un itinerario adaptado. It is an awesome place. I recommend to visit it in march-april when the snow is melting and you will enjoy a mixture of colours as well as the a major quantity of water in the waterfall. The distance from the car park to the waterfall is just 260 m and it has an adapted path for disable people.

A must-see in Cuenca! Cool view of greenery, hills and the Casas Colgadas 👍🏼

Magnificent views even on a “so-so” day weatherwise

Very impressive! A tad bouncy and you can certainly feel the bridge sway and jiggle when you walk over it which can be disconcerting and if you’re scared of heights then it’s a tad terrifying. But a cool experience. Definitely worth a trip to Cuenca.

Not for the faint of heart, vertigo sufferers or ones with fear of height. It looks harmless from the photos but the bridge's width is narrower and the height of the bridge is perched far higher than expected. Does not help that the bridge has very thin railings on both sides. That said it does have very breathtaking panoramic views of the town and countryside if you can keep your eyes open and stop your legs from shaking.

Lovely bridge. Was fun jumping on it. Just kidding. The middle part shakes a bit but the views are incredible.

The bridge is a wonderful way to enter the city. The other way is through a spiraling road in the bottom near the underground parking lot. It’s hard to truly capture the magnitude of the city if you don’t cross the bridge.

Simply beautiful and breathtaking

Wow wow wow, I have never been in a Cathedral that has given me so much joy. I love stained glass so this was an absolute revelation. the stained glass in this cathedral is nothing short of spectacular. the original plain glass windows were replaced by the most spectacular modernist stained glass that elevated this cathedral into something quite exceptional. They also had an exhibition go religious iconography that was simply breathtaking. this Cathedral is definitely a must visit if you are in the city

Amazing cathedral with many little side chapels all with a different history. You have to pay to get in but it's probably one of the most interesting cathedrals we've visited in Spain. Pay the extra 1.5 euros to climb the tower and get a balcony view into the cathedral and out into the square

The interior suprised me, the stained glass works of the cathedral were amazing and we could see many reflections inside! The ceilings are very cool pieces of artwork, and there are many details to see. Visited in October 2025, tickets were 5.50 euros for general public and 4.50 for carnet joven holders.

One of the most beautiful churches I have ever seen. The entry is 5 euros, which I think is totally worth it, and you can also pay 2 euros more to go up to the inside balcony, where you get an amazing view of the main square. For the experience and the amount of beautiful pictures you can take, it feels like a fair price. You can truly spend many hours here because each room has so much personality and makes you feel like you’re walking through a masterpiece. They also have an outside patio where you can see the famous hanging houses of Cuenca, the bridge, and even the statue of the Virgin Mary in the distance. The only downside is that when I tried to pay the 2 extra euros for the balcony, they didn’t accept card, so make sure to bring some cash with you. Also, the shops around the cathedral usually don’t accept card unless you spend at least 5 euros, which was a bit annoying. Other than that, it was an amazing experience, and honestly, if you’re in Madrid, the trip to Cuenca is completely worth it just for this cathedral.

Beyond spectacular. One of the most beautiful and special churches I have ever seen. Highly recommend, even with the small entrance fee. So worth it!

The brightest spot in Cuenca for me. Nice vies from the top to the Plaza Mayor and from the backyard to the mountains.

Iconic historic cathedral located by the Plaza Mayor of Cuenca. Rich in architecture, sculpture, and other religious arts. It offers a unique presence in the historic core sitting adjacent to the River Huecar side with rich views from its cloister gardens. The visit has good digital guide resources and offers a series of combined tickets. With time a full ticket is recommendable and gives access during two days to the main cathedral, going up through the facade triforio, entry to the cathedral museum, and nearby St. Thomas church and tower, which are also notable.

Belmonte Castle, situated in the picturesque town of Belmonte, Cuenca, Spain, is a stunning example of medieval architecture, blending Gothic and Mudejar styles. It was built in the second half of the 15th century by Don Juan Pacheco, the first Marquis of Villena, it stands atop San Cristóbal hill, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The castle's unique star-shaped design, with six towers reaching 22 meters high, makes it a standout among European fortresses. The fortress was practically abandoned between the 17th and 18th centuries and was more or less ruinous by the early 19th century. The heiress of the house of Villena, Eugenia de Guzman, better known as the Empress Eugenia de Montijo and her architect Alejandro Sureda began a restoration project in 1857, keeping the exterior in the original style but updating the interior to modern tastes. Its rich history includes the abive periods of abandonment and restoration, notably by Empress Eugenia de Montijo in the 19th century. It later served as a prison for the Partido Judicial de Belmonte, and as an Onsimo Redondo academy for the Francoist 'Frente de Juventudes'. It was abandoned and began to deteriorate again, before being made a cultural monument in 1931. It is now owned by the descendants of the empress' sister Maria Francisca de Sales Portocarrero. It was restored again in summer 2010 and opened to the public. Today, it is a Bien de Interés Cultural, hosting guided tours and exhibitions that delve into its fascinating past. Visitors can explore its grand halls, admire the intricate Mudejar ceilings, and enjoy the panoramic views from its ramparts. The castle's strategic location in Castilla-La Mancha makes it an ideal day trip for history enthusiasts and those exploring the region's cultural heritage. After visiting the castle, a stroll through the charming town of Belmonte offers a chance to enjoy local cuisine and hospitality.

Worth a visit! This castle is quite lovely with various rooms to visit. You can walk all along the castle walls which is quite unique and you can get amazing photos of the city. Buying tickets in advance or at the window is recommended. If you’re also in the area, go visit the windmills as it’s around a 10 minute drive so you could do both trips in one day!

Wonderful restored castle. It is a beautiful place to roam around with the information on the scan code in English or Spanish. It's very informative. My only issue was the extra 3€ for views the weapons etc at the exterior of the castle. Still it was worth the entrance fee of 8€

Beautiful castle, very nice view to the city when up to the towers. Large free parking lot just outside the entrance.

An awesome visit! The castle is really impressive and in an excellent status of conservation. This visit is a must do if you are in the area. Reserve at least one hour for the visit. As the castle is in the top of a hill, the views from the towers are awesome. It has also an interesting theme park dedicated a war machinery (trebuchets)

Worth seeing and lots of views of the country and small town. Amazing to see such an old castle/fortress in such good condition, and be able to take photos and your time when exploring the inside and surrounding area. There are 5 towers to climb up and overlook in all directions, and u will also see three old windmills that were talked about in Don Quioti's novel. This place is in the middle of no-where, and a few minutes after u leave and look back, u won't see anything again - a very well hidden place with all the hills around.

Very well set up documentation & tour. Including actors & extensive exhibition of medieval siege equipment.

Quite nice if you’re around. Wouldn’t drive here just for this.

Fascinating and eary arid landscape with windmills of La Mancha. Very friendly people. Restaurants let you use their restrooms for free.

Lovely place, views amazing, shop friendly, one of the bars/souvenir shops up where the windmills are very welcoming, another not so, however, walked into town and went for a drink at Pl Mayor, 13, 13610. What a wonderful family, they cooked for us after kitchen closed, as they were cooking for family. Massive portions, well cooked and presented, made us feel very welcome.

Wonderful place to visit. Near is excellent michelin recommended restaurant. From this position you have best view on the city. And ofcourse you can enjoy in famous Don Quixote windmills. Visit is free, but some windmills are open where you can buy souvenirs or learn more about culture of the area and more about windmills.

Great place to spend an afternoon. Really enjoyed watching the mill work from the inside. The inside is only open on the first Sunday of every month so plan accordingly.

Very well maintained and preserved windmills. Worth a visit. Plenty of parking. Couple of food options there and a small souvenir shop with a very nice staff.

Beautiful location with the best views of the city! These famous windmills have been featured in Don Quixote’s match scene so if you’re a fan of the book, a visit is worth it! It’s free to visit plus some windmills are open sometimes so you can go in and view the inside as well which is fantastic. There are gift shops and restaurants here as well so if you want some original Don Quixote gifts or food, this is a reasonable place to purchase them.

Must do trip from madrid!!! So worth it to drive there (about 1 hr), you only need an hour or two there to take photos and go up inside one of the mills. Amazing views, and you can walk/hike to see all of them or also go by car and stop at each of them. No regrets.

Visiting the Molinos de Viento de Consuegra felt like stepping into a storybook! 🌾 These iconic windmills, perched along the hilltop, are absolutely breathtaking — especially with the sprawling countryside stretching out in every direction 😍. Walking from one windmill to the next, we couldn’t help but imagine Don Quixote and his legendary adventures coming to life. The views from the top are spectacular, with the castle standing proudly nearby and the charming town of Consuegra below. It’s the perfect place for photography, a peaceful walk, and a moment to soak in the history and beauty of Spain. We went early in the morning, and it was quiet and serene, with just the sound of the breeze turning the sails. A must-visit destination for anyone traveling through Castilla-La Mancha — full of magic, history, and unforgettable scenery. 🌟📸

Such a fun place to stop and see this historic site in Spain. The windmills are much larger than they look in pictures and it's amazing to see them up close. You can pay a couple of Euros to go up and see the inside. I think it's worth it as it was very fascinating. There is a little movie they show you that explains how they worked.

The windmills of Consuegra are located on a high ridge overlooking the plains of La Mancha. It is a very nice place to visit, offering a wide panorama of the Castilian countryside—a classic view of the region, often associated with the novel Don Quixote. The views from the hilltop are excellent and stretch clearly for miles, providing ample opportunity for good photographs. The site also features the Medieval Castle of Consuegra, which is located right next to the mills. The castle is an interesting structure to explore, offering solid insight into the area's history and strategic past. While it requires a drive, this destination is totally worth the trip. It combines significant history and appealing architecture with great natural views. If you are traveling through central Spain, we recommend making this a worthwhile stop on your itinerary.

I have a special desire for windmills especially those old windmills, visited those in Mykonos and absolutely like them. Knowing Spain also have old windmills and I have to be there. The sunset here is incredible and I would assume sunrise is amazing as well. Worth a visit and if you drive, drive lol the way up to the last windmills!

Absolutely loved my sunset walk among the windmills of Consuegra! 🌇✨ A wonderful blend of history and nature, with the sky ablaze in gold and pink hues. 🌅 Perfect spot to burn some calories and be mesmerized. 🏃‍♂️🌟 First stop on my mini Europe road trip and it was fantastic! 🚗🇪🇸 Highly recommend!

Wonderful place with stunning views. You can visit a windmill inside and learn how it works. Several languages available. So interesting! Bring a wind jacket 😉

A fabulous Royal Palace with gardens that deserves your visit. The famous gardens here were the inspiration for the musical piece "Concierto de Aranjuez". This was one of the favorite musical pieces of my father which inspired me to visit. When we attend they were doing a lot of construction and renovation which detracted from the experience. It was still well worth visiting. We said to ourselves we would love to come back when they're done with the renovation work. We were not able to visit the fabulous garden with the fountain because of this renovation work. The other gardens were open with several working fountains and some fountains that were not flowing.

One of the must-see places in Aranjuez. This place is so beautiful and so detailed. I forgot to take photos of some spots because they were so beautiful 🤦🏻‍♀️ As the the UNESCO World Heritage site and a former spring residence of the Spanish royal family. Located in the town of Aranjuez, the estate includes the palace, extensive gardens, and other buildings like the Casa del Labrador.

At just 60 minutes from the Madrid center via Cercanias C3 train. Very well preserved and restored, it was the royal palace for the spanish throne until Elizabeth II after which the seat was moved to Madrid. From the outside it may seem unassuming architecture but the interior has the grandeur you can find in the Royal Palace in Madrid. The main stairs are a late addition which serves as a great intro with an interesting story. The 'Gabinete Árabe' smoking room, my favorite part of the visit because you don't expect a room like that in the seat of catholic kings and queens, is a breathtaking representation of arabic interior design, replicating part of the Alhambra of Granada. I strongly recommend taking the guided tour. It lasts about 75 minutes, our guide was very knowledgeable and eloquent. The tour gives you private access to some of the best crafted rooms with outstanding ornaments and intimate details of the consort spaces. Just one photo of the exterior to avoid spoilers 😁

The Royal Palace of Aranjuez is a stunning royal residence about 1 hr. from Madrid, historical architecture and its vast,beautiful gardens along the Tagus River. Inside, highlights include the Porcelain Room and Arab Room, filled with intricate decoration and history. Less crowded than Madrid’s main palace, peaceful and scenic experience — perfect for a day trip.

This is a great little getaway that is only an hour by train from Madrid. It is absolutely lovely to wander the gardens around the palace. Inside the palace are lovely rooms that the Royal family that used to stay and live in. The tickets were very inexpensive and this trip is great for half a day. We got some drinks afterwards at the restaurant nearby. If you’re looking for a half day trip from Madrid, this is it!

Expansive palace renovated mainly with rather heavy rococo style interiors. The Royal Chapel was closed for a concert thus all in all a “meh” experience

The palace it’s great! If you have time in Madrid you can explore this place

Beautiful pedestrian street with a lot of cafes and restaurants. It was pleasure for us walking on it.

It is a commercial street lined with arcade buildings on both sides. It was a commercial street even in the Middle Ages. It originated from the city's ancient Jewish aljama, around the 12th century. It is a pedestrian-only street.

Good place to walk, to take some pictures, to visit Cervantes' house and to drink and eat.. 😉

(Translated by Google) A very pretty street in Alcalá de Henares. It's nice to walk along these streets. What's a shame is how dirty it is, even smelling bad on some corners. I don't know why they don't keep something so clean and worth seeing. (Original) Calle muy bonita de Alcalá de Henares, se agradece pasear por calles así, lo que da pena es lo sucia que está, incluso llegando a oler mal en alguna esquina, no sé cómo no mantienen algo así limpio y digno de ver.

(Translated by Google) Alcalá de Henares is a city that has everything if you want to spend a few days on vacation. It has places to eat during the week, with menus starting from €15 in restaurants with impeccable service, shops of all kinds, supermarkets, and in terms of culture, several buildings to visit, such as the House of Cervantes. If you want to visit Madrid, you can take the metro from any nearby town. (Original) Alcalá de henares es una ciudad que lo tiene todo si quieres pasar unos días de vacaciones, ciudad que tiene sitios para comer entre semana tienes menús desde 15 € en restaurantes con un servicio impecable, comercio de todo tipo, supermercados, y en cultura varios edificios que visitar, como la casa de Cervantes,y si quieres visitar Madrid puedes coger el metro desde cualquier localidad cercana.

(Translated by Google) The most visited street in Alcalá de Henares. Arcaded and flanked by unique buildings (such as the Cervantes House Museum), it's pedestrianized and pleasant for strolling, enjoying its alleyways, courtyards, restaurants, and taverns. Unfortunately, many shops belonging to various franchises have also taken over, detracting from the experience. Nevertheless, a must-see in Alcalá. (Original) La calle más visitable de Alcalá de Henares. Soportalada, flanqueada por edificios singulares (como la casa museo de Cervantes. Peatonal. Agradable para pasear y disfrutar de alguno de sus callejones y patios, restaurantes y tabernas. Lamentablemente también se han colado en muchos locales comercios de distintas franquicias que desmerecen la experiencia. Con todo, visita necesaria en Alcalá

(Translated by Google) Nice street for strolling, shopping and eating Parking is nearby (Original) Bonita calle para pasear, comprar y comer Hay cerca aparcamiento

Free entry into a walk through the early life of a famous Spanish writer. A look back at a age past gone.

Definitely worth stopping in to learn about one of Spain’s greatest writers, Miguel de Cervantes. The staff was knowledgeable, and the house was thoughtfully arranged and well presented.

Free yes free. Self guided tour of the home of the author of Man of La Mancha. The street it’s located on is loaded with little shops and cafes. It not a heavy tourist area so the crowds were manageable It’s worth coming here for a visit

Amazing to visit a house so old that raised Cervantes! Very well preserved and organised! Free entrance! And there are statues of Don Quixote and Sancho in front of the house! Loved it!

Must see for Cervantes fans! His birthplace and family home. Nicely maintained. Furnished in the style of the 16th century. Entrance was free.

Although the museum is not that big, it’s nice to see the birth place of the most famous Spanish writer, Miguel de Cervantes. It’s also very interesting to see what the place used to look like from the exhibits. If you are in the area, it’s definitely worth visiting.

In center of Alcalá you can find the Cervantes Birthplace house and museum. The entrance is free and you can learn and see how was the lifestyle at that time. Very interesting and a mandatory visit in Alcalá.

Such a fun park!! Great for a day of playing around, the lines aren’t that big and there’s some rides that are so crazy immersive that you leave fully wondering what was happening! We went in the end of September and already got a lot of cool Halloween experiences and decor! My main complaints: - there’s is basically no vegetarian food options inside of the park (im not even gonna mention vegan) Being that you cannot enter with food this is extremely unfortunate. Had to eat a pizza margarita after 30 minutes of searching for food; - the Halloween experiences were extra charge and it wasn’t that cheap! You pay 44€ for the general admission and then you have to pay an extra 7€ per ride (single). I felt like it wasn’t fair - there’s more stores and restaurants than rides. The rides are some of the best I’ve ever been on and so much fun, but you have to walk a lot to get to them as you always have to go through stores and restaurants - more than once was a ride in maintenance while we were there. Eventually we managed to get on all of them but it was annoying to keep having to go back in line

Visited during the Halloween season and overall had a great time. The park is clean, well themed, and offers a solid mix of rides for both thrill seekers and families. The Gold Fast Pass is absolutely worth buying as it saves hours of waiting and makes the experience far smoother. Food quality was better than expected for a theme park, and the PhotoPass system is a nice way to keep all ride photos digitally. On the downside, most staff speak very limited English and signage can be confusing. The Gold Pass does not work for the horror mazes and we waited about an hour and a half to enter the IT Experience, which lasted around five minutes. Some vending machines also stopped working later in the evening, which was frustrating after a long day of walking. Still, the Halloween theming and atmosphere were great, and with the Gold Pass, the park is worth visiting.

Enjoyed the day, arrived at 1130am checked in and on rides by 12.07pm. Bit more information pre q on how to exchange all inclusive tickets would be helpful. All inclusive wasn't worth it in my opinion, freestyle drinks be a better option. Fast pass was great, and well organised. Recommended as a theme park to visit

Parque Warner Madrid exceeded my expectations and delivered a full day of fun, excitement, and surprisingly great theming. From the moment you walk through the gates, the atmosphere pulls you into the world of DC Comics, Looney Tunes, and classic Hollywood — it’s immersive, colorful, and well-designed. The rides were fantastic! Superman: La Atracción de Acero is a must for any roller coaster lover — smooth, intense, and thrilling. Batman: Arkham Asylum was another highlight with the VR option, and the Stunt Fall ride definitely isn’t for the faint of heart! But it’s not just thrill rides — there are also plenty of attractions for families and younger visitors, especially in the Cartoon Village, which is adorable and really well done. The park is also clean and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I was impressed by the variety and quality of the shows, especially the Loca Academia de Policía stunt show — it had us cheering the whole time. Food inside the park is what you’d expect from a theme park — a bit pricey — but there were decent options, and everything we tried was fresh. I also appreciated the shaded areas and mist zones during the hot parts of the day. Overall, Parque Warner is one of the best theme parks I’ve visited in Europe. Whether you’re traveling with kids, friends, or as a couple, there’s something for everyone. Highly recommend getting the fast pass if you're going on a busy weekend — it makes a huge difference. 5 stars without a doubt!

The park is well organised and a lot of possible activities can be done there. The day we visit was a rainy day and the park kept apoi only one gate, letting the people in the rain waiting to enter for more than 15 minutes.

We recently visited the park and had a great experience. There was something for everyone in the family, nice rides and shows. We will visit again for sure :-)

Parque Warner Madrid is an amazing place to spend the day—we had a great time enjoying the rides, shows, and overall atmosphere. The park is fun, vibrant, and full of things to do for all ages. We genuinely enjoyed our visit and would happily go back. The only issue we found is that some staff members don’t speak English, which is a bit surprising for a park that attracts so many international visitors. It didn’t ruin the experience, but it did make certain moments a little harder than expected. Overall, it’s a fantastic park with plenty to enjoy, and with just a bit more attention to language support, it would be even better.

A Peaceful Oasis in the Heart of Madrid – El Parque del Retiro I visited El Parque del Retiro on October 13, 2025, and it was an amazing experience. The weather was perfect — sunny, warm, and surrounded by the beautiful autumn colors of the trees. This park is truly a peaceful oasis in the center of Madrid, full of history, nature, and charm. During my visit, I explored the fountains, the Estanque Grande (the large lake), the elegant Palacio de Cristal, and even the Jardín Escondido, a lovely hidden garden full of calm and beauty. You can easily spend hours walking around, renting a bike or scooter, or simply relaxing and enjoying the scenery. I brought a picnic with Iberian sandwiches, fresh fruits, and dessert — a perfect way to spend the afternoon. The entrance is free, and I recommend visiting in the late afternoon to enjoy the magical sunset views over the lake. The park’s location is excellent, close to the Puerta de Alcalá, making it easy to explore the nearby area as well. Whether you go with family, friends, or on your own, El Retiro is an unforgettable place to connect with nature and enjoy the beauty of Madrid.

A trip to Madrid is incomplete without a visit to the Retiro Park. It is so vast, peaceful and with surprises at every turn that you can spend hours just absorbing the different vibes of mother nature. We saw the beautiful birds, some rare foliage and a nice lake / water body where people could do rowing. There is a beautiful blend of nature with history as the palace and corridors of ancient sculptures adorn this park. Some cute cafes too and lots of enthusiastic visitors jogging or walking along, friends chatting on the benches and lovers too. Would highly recommend that you keep time for this place on your holiday to genuinely recharge your batteries.

A really beautiful park in the middle of the city easily accessible with the metro too. It's massive and there's a lot to explore, you can find lots of people but at the same time many spots in the park with more silence if you prefer that. Highly recommend going here.

Once part of a royal retreat in the 17th century, El Retiro Park is now Madrid’s green heart—perfect for walking, rowing on the lake, or relaxing under the shade of century-old trees. The Crystal Palace and Rose Garden are must-sees, especially at sunset. Free to enter and full of art, fountains, and street performers, it’s a serene escape from the city’s buzz and a place where locals and travelers blend beautifully with nature.

It’s a lovely and lively park. There were some excellent musicians playing throughout the park and lots of people but plenty of room to enjoy. We would have enjoyed a boat ride but didn’t have time. We were disappointed that the crystal palace is under renovation and covered.

Gorgeous park with a beautiful lake and fountain. You can rent a canoe to go around the lake, or you can just walk the beautiful grounds. They have a strip of food places that are very nice. It is a great place to relax and take in the beauty of nature.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beautiful and lively park in the heart of Madrid! I just finished walking around Retiro Park, and it’s such a peaceful yet energetic place. Many people come here for jogging, cycling, and group workouts, while others simply enjoy a relaxing stroll. I also saw people rowing boats on the lake — it adds such a charming touch to the atmosphere. In the late afternoon, the light is beautiful and many visitors gather to take photos around the fountains and gardens. Definitely a must-visit spot if you want to experience how Madrid locals enjoy their day.

This former hospital is a sprawling museum over for floors currently the fourth and third floors are not exhibiting any artwork and the garden gardens are undergoing renovations. This beautiful building has a modern extension at the front which is brilliant. The works inside are representative of the Spanishhistory of the modern era. There are many documents and magazine, examples, architectural, designs, and posters of the war era. There are Picasso’s works by Dali Miro and the Cubist. It is an impressive collection and well attended.

The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía is an absolute must-visit for art lovers and anyone interested in Spain’s modern artistic legacy. Seeing *Guernica* in person is a truly moving experience — powerful, haunting, and unforgettable. It’s a privilege to stand before not just Picasso’s masterpiece but also works by Dalí, Miró, and other icons of 20th-century art. You’ll want to budget at least two hours, though it’s easy to spend the entire day exploring the galleries and temporary exhibitions. We visited on Spain’s National Day, so entrance was free; there was a queue in the morning, but it moved quickly. Note: bags and liquids aren’t allowed inside, so bring a €1 coin for the lockers. Overall, a beautifully curated museum that rewards both casual visitors and serious art enthusiasts alike.

The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, inaugurated in 1992, is Spain’s national museum of 20th-century art, housed in a former hospital redesigned by architect Antonio Fernández Alba. Its collection features masterpieces by Picasso, Dalí, and Miró, including Picasso’s legendary Guernica. The modern glass elevators and spacious galleries create a perfect setting for contemporary art. Entry is free on certain evenings, making it a must-see for art lovers in Madrid.

I went here primarily to see Guernica, a work by Picasso the I learned about 45+ years ago in a high school English class. Given the context, understanding the symbolism, message, and promotion of liberty and free speech made seeing this masterpiece in person powerful. I loved how it was displayed, and was glad to arrive early with few other people in the room. To see other works by Dali, Delaunay and many others was a bonus for me. The museum is large and spacious and I never felt crowded or rushed.

Very valuable place and a must visit in Madrid. Amazing collection of Picasso and Dali can be found here as well as other spanish and latino artists. Dont forget to go to terrace as well as they have dew modern arts and you can enjoy the view of Madrid as well

An amazing gallery, which concentrates on spanish art, but with some very interesting and valuable international links too. I went on a sunday in the free hour 12:30-14:15 for which i would recommend being there 30 minute earlier since obviously many people do this🤭. Still despite the long queue, people were getting in pretty quickly. When in, the permanent paintings, distributed in the halls by style (cubism, post cubism, surrealism, etc.) were on the second floor (3rd and 4th floor were temporarily closed). On the first floor there was an amazing exhibit by Maruja Mallo (i’ll post photos of some of her paintings).

Book early to avoid disappointment (so true!) - while the Guernica was spectacular and emotional (we went in October this year so not huge crowds) there were many other paintings. Sculptures that were epic. It's a " must visit" for Madrid

Art museum with lots of artwork, some sculptures. Lots of art are religious theme. No pictures are allowed to take inside the museum. There are guard in every section area to ensure no touching nor photos. Museum and art lovers can easily spend half to a day here. Worth a visit.

The Museo Nacional del Prado is one of those places that truly earns its reputation — a vast, magnificent collection that feels like walking through the pages of art history. From Velázquez and Goya to Titian and Rubens, every gallery reveals another masterpiece. That said, it can definitely feel overwhelming, with rooms branching into more rooms and a layout that’s easy to get lost in — but that’s part of its charm and grandeur. We visited on Spain’s National Day when entry was free, and while the queue took about 30 minutes, it moved steadily. Even on regular free-admission days, expect a wait, so plan accordingly. Once inside, the experience is nothing short of breathtaking — an essential stop for anyone visiting Madrid, even if it takes a little patience to get in. Truly a world class museum.

Excellent experience. The Spanish Renaissance era art perfectly compliments Italian Renaissance masterpieces. We spent 3 hours in the museum and it wasn’t long enough to see it all.

No photos at all allowed here. Unusual but show respect and refrain. Just enjoy the incredible collection without thinking about your social media cred! Budget 5-6 hours honestly. Not as big as Louvre thankfully, but still large. Titian, Rubens, Van Dyck and of course mucho Goya and Velasquez. Bucket list museum for renaissance and baroque art lovers! The photos I took were before I was made aware of the no photo policy.

“The Prado Museum is Madrid’s artistic treasure and one of the most important museums in the world. Founded in 1819 under King Ferdinand VII, it showcases iconic works by Velázquez, Goya, El Greco, and Rubens. Designed by Juan de Villanueva, the neoclassical building itself is a masterpiece. Every room reveals centuries of European art and royal history. Admission is around €15, with free entry during late-afternoon hours—an unmissable experience for art lovers visiting Madrid.”

Famous museum to visit but remember no camera photo allowed. Even in London big famous museum we allow to take picture for memory. Some nice art to see if you really into art anyway.

Astonishing. Breathtaking. This is one of the world's top art museums. You must see. Buy tickets in advance and check on free admission dates and times. Best to plan for a whole day. Guided tours available and are worth the price. Allow plenty of time for security line, especially if you have a timed tour. Nice cafe inside can provide snacks, drinks or full meal. If you've never been go,

An incredible collection of art. Prefer wandering the halls here over some of the other more notable museums in Madrid. That said, it can be a little overwhelming in scope/size, with floor after floor, hall after all. But it is fairly well organized and easy to navigate. There is also a small cafeteria should you get in the mood for a snack or coffee. Definitely worth the cost of admission, and definitely worth your time.

Museum is great, big would definitely recommend to dedicate at least 4 hours to do it calmly and with intention. They have pieces from almost all eras and movements and really liked the route as well. Mondays it’s free so recommend to take advantage of that!! Audio guide was okay, but they focus mainly on a piece at each room and give you a lot of info about it but I was hopping it would be about all pieces or at least more of the overall context or the movement those pieces share, can be better tbh

Medium to large size without clear direction signs. If you have a sense of direction you’ll find your way around, but not easy to make a path from start to finish without more than once doubling back. The timed entry is usually for a ground floor temporary exhibitions, but the best way to see all is to start from the top and work your way down, thus in chronological order of period. But, all that aside, wow, what a collection of masterpieces! Highly recommended. Budget 3-4 hrs to see all properly. Don’t skip any room, as you might miss a jewel amongst works of lesser renown, albeit still tremendously valuable and relevant.

Beautiful collection! Had a wonderful time admiring the incredible artwork. An extremely rude tour guide for the museum decided to stand in front of a Caravaggio for nearly 10 minutes as the room filled up with people waiting to see it. She wouldn't move, kept yapping. Even the people in her group realized they were in the way. Eventually someone gently approached her & asked if she could please move aside so that all the rest of the people waiting could view the popular Caravaggio. Her response was that she was with the museum & "there are 800 other works of art you can go look at". I don't care who you work for or how much art there is in the museum, the art is for all of us. Don't be rude.

Very good museum that covers 500-600 years of art. It’s relatively small and easy to navigate. The collection holds a wide variety of paintings from early Italian church art through landscape painters, Impressionists, Fauves to Picasso and more contemporary artists.

A fantastic collection, brilliantly laid out in a beautiful building. The top floor held the older works, with lots of beautiful religious paintings, some dating back to the 10th century. The first floor contained the more modern works, from around the mid 19th century onwards, encompassing Impressionism, Expressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, Surrealism and more, through Pop-Art, right up to works from present day. The galleries were very well laid out, with a chronological nature to each room - in many cases, it helped connect the dots between the different movements, and bevause of the depth of the collection, in cases like work from Miro or Kandinsky, you could see the artist's style adapting and developing over the years. The ground floor holds the loaned collection from the daughter of the original donor, and contains even more treasures, especially from the Impressionists, with treats from Sisley and Pizarro, and some spectacular Pop-Art period works from the likes of O'Keefe.

My partner who is hearing impaired found it very difficult to hear the audio guide that we purchased. The staff pulled out all stops to ensure my partner could hear the guide. Eventually they suggested that he listen to the guide from the web version of the audio on his phone and direct the audio through Bluetooth to his hearing aids. The audio was perfect and we both thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hours at the museum. Thank you to the lovely team member who helped out with the audio!

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 “Santiago Bernabéu – the temple where dreams come true… and the hopes of visiting teams quietly die.” Great stadium: huge, modern, shines like a spaceship. The atmosphere is loud enough to crush the self-esteem of any away team within ten minutes. Security is friendly but has the look of people who’ve seen everything – including fans who mentally switched to airplane mode after the third goal. Food? Typical stadium stuff: expensive, but at least the beer tastes like hope. Seats? Usually great – unless you get the guy who celebrates every goal like he just won the lottery. Conclusion: A beautiful stadium. Perfect if you love Real… or bring a touch of masochism as an away fan.

One of the best stadiums in the world! The tour was incredibly detailed and well-organized. it took around 2–3 hours to complete, and every minute was worth it. Truly one of the best experiences I hav ever had!

I was here for the NFL game better the Washington Commanders and the Miami Dolphins and i have to say the stadium is amazing...its clean, easy to get around, chairs are a bit smaller than I am used to in America but other than that its aces. The lightning, the scoreboard and details throughout the stadium is amazing...best of all the food prices are soooo cheap compared to America...at least 50% cheaper, and the food was great.

Took the bernabue tour which cost 35 euros per person and felt like it could’ve been cheaper. The stadium was having an event so they didn’t let us stay inside past 10 minutes or so. The whole tour is an immersive experience, the history is well elaborated so even someone who isn’t a fan can connect and appreciate the journey that the team has had. The architecture is appreciative. An entire section is also dedicated to real madrid city.

As a American coming here, it was truly a great experience! The Spain crowd was curious and interested. The Stadium really gave off that “big” feeling being that there were so many seats taken. For a NFL international game I feel like it could’ve been more functional getting in and out of the game, transportation, etc. but I guess there isn’t much you can do when you have 80,000 trying to cram in the small metro. Experience was great would highly recommend!

Traveled to Madrid for as my favorite football team were playing the Dolphins on my birthday. We lost, unfortunately. However, the stadium was beautiful and packed. Everyone were so nice. Not sure when I would be able to get back, but I enjoyed my time there.

Amazing stadium design let down by the organisation. Visited for the NFL game and there was no organisation or direction for fans arriving. Police moving through on horseback using aggression to form queues. The food and drink we got was reasonably priced for a stadium but they had either sold out or not stocked any hot food before kick off. Ended up we only got crisps that cost €5
