Depends on what your interests are... <BR> <BR>For most people, not-to-miss things would be: <BR> <BR>The Prado Museum, which has one of the world's greatest collections. <BR> <BR>The Centro de Arte Reina Sofia. Picasso's Guernica alone justifies the trip to Madrid. <BR> <BR>The Thyssen-Bornemiza Museum. Minor works by major artists. <BR> <BR>The area around Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor <BR> <BR>Toledo (80 kms away) <BR>El Escorial (30 kms away) <BR>The Valley of the Fallen (even if some people call it a fascist extravaganza, it is an amazing sight) <BR> <BR>There are tons of other things to do... <BR>But then again... it depends

Retiro Park -- A beautiful park that will make you forget you're in the middle of a busy city.

Check out www.madridman.com - there is a lot of information about Madrid. <BR> <BR>For me, the Prado is a must see. They also have buses that provide a hop-on hop-service for the whole day. You buy the tickets at the newspaper stands. If you are unsure of where to go, this is a good way of getting around.

The botanical gardens between the Prado and Park Retiro are also fabulous. The perfect place to unwind and smell the roses -- and all the other flora -- after a hectic afternoon in the museum. More peaceful than the park. <BR> <BR>Also, a day trip to Segovia -- about an hour by bus -- is highly recommended.
