Visit the beautiful and biggest
city in Spain known as Madrid. It is indeed a place with rich history, culture,
traditions and noticeably Castilian charm making it an attractive destination
for many tourists. There are numerous places to explore when you are touring
Madrid. Anyway, here are some of your best bets for sightseeing.
Experience the exotic feel of the
well-known Arab Wall, one of the oldest parts of Madrid with streets and
buildings that are about a thousand year old. Unlike what most people believe, Spain
has always had a strong connection to Arab culture since the ancient times to
prove this, think about the Mosque of Cordoba in Spain.
Be captivated by the historic El
Palacio Real, a royal palace that has a rich history, from the Arabs to the
Austrians and then onto the Spaniards. Get a glimpse of the amazing Royal
Quarters and also the majestic Throne Room which is adorned with exquisite
stucco and mosaics.
If you want to see some classic
nineteenth century royal architecture, then go to Casa de America, Palacio de
Linares. This is a stunning house from the nineteenth century believed to be
"haunted" by Madrid locals. Palacio de Linares is composed of a
library, auditorium and rooms for exhibits.
