Home > Spanish Resources > Madrid Travel Guide


Most people living outside Madrid think about the Spanish capital city as a sunny place full of fun-loving people. But Madrid is much more than this traditional picture. It is drenched in the historical pageantry of conquistadors and empires, the artistic legacy of Velázquez, Goya, Dalí, and Picasso, as well as the romance of Don Quixote.

It also has palaces, cathedrals and churches that are famous all over the world. Not to mention, of course, the great nightlife and gastronomic scenes. These are the main reasons why Madrid is one of the best cities to learn the Spanish language. But before you book a flight, you need to know some things about the culture in Madrid and also the basics of the Spanish language if you are to survive your initial days in this fabulous city.
