One of the best things to do in Madrid if you are an Art major or just a general enthusiast is to visit the Prado Museum which features works of Spain’s iconic artists such as Goya. If you would like to relax after a long day spent exploring everything that Madrid has to offer, plop down in one of the comfy chairs at a local open air café at the Playa Mayor.

Sample some scrumptious specialties at El Tigre before visiting a night club to dance the night away. If bargain hunting is your thing, then you will fall in love with the El Rastro flea market which is the largest of its kind in Europe. Browsing through the local goods there will quickly become one of your favorite things to do in Madrid. You can find almost anything you need there from jewelry to vinyl records!
