Madrid, Spain: Another City Full of Life (Part 2)

By Hannah Jang 

If you think you’ve seen enough art after your walk through the palace, you are wrong. You will see more of Velázquez’ and Goya’s works at the Prado Museum, which is one of Madrid’s most-visited sites. The Prado Museum holds the largest collection of Spanish paintings, which include Velázquez’ Las Meninas and Goya’s The Third of May: the Executions of Príncipe Pío. Meanwhile, at the Reina Sofia Museum of Modern Art, you will find Picasso’s notorious painting of the Guernica. Both museums are homes to a multitude of paintings and art, so make sure you plan your time wisely or else you might be in there forever, because there is more to see in Madrid so you don’t want to miss out on that!
