The dynamism of the city which ensued is best represented by it's architecture. The imposing colonial buildings to be seen almost everywhere, probably contribute to the unflappable self-confidence and composure of the people of Madrid.
The capital’s remarkable collection of museums and galleries includes the Prado. It alone is considered to hold Spain's most significant collection of historical art.
If you looking for Spanish souvenirs you will definitely find something on Madrid’s most famous flea market "El Rastro". |

There are also plenty of typical Spanish cafes and bars which offer tapas and local wines you should enjoy after class or to start the evening.
