9 Museums in Recoletos That You Shouldn't Miss

December 9, 2021 Vergie Nakamoto

So many of Madrid’s buildings look like castles, you’ll think you’ve stumbled into a fairytale. Even City Hall is astounding, with its white pinnacles and neo-Gothic features. A self-guided architecture tour can begin by the great bear statue in the central Puerta del Sol. Wander by the fanciful Royal Palace before absorbing the natural beauty of Retiro Park, then visit one of the city’s many museums. You could happily cap off each day by nibbling on forkfuls of paella while sipping Spanish rioja.

I really love this museum. It always offers different exhibitions and the entrance is free for the public. I recently went to the one dedicated to Miguel Delibes, one of the most famous Spaniah writers from the 20th century.
