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.

This is a beautiful chapel built under the reign of Charles the 4th. It was built in 1798 and Goya painted the frescoes. The painting are excellent. They are almost expressionist paintings, what is called the black paintings by Goya. Entrance is free!
