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.

In a beautiful modern building with visual references to the past the history of the Americas is recounted with globes , maps , videos as well as a wonderful treasure house of artefacts . Spanish America is emphasized but eg the Inuits & other Far Northern peoples are represented . The beauty and workmanship of the ceramics and textiles particularly impressed me . Currently they have no cafeteria however - unfortunate but there are many choices nearby in Moncloa .

Would highly recommend a visit here for the views of the city. Easy to get to by bus and a short walk. Entry cost €3, worth every cent! Wasnt busy while we were there, late morning. You go up in a glass lift - no good if you don't like heights! Views were stunning, with pictures showing what you were looking at. Highly recommended
