Introduction of must-see attractions for a one-day tour in Madrid

Madrid is the city and capital of Spain. The city here has a sense of modernization, but it is also the history of Madrid that people yearn for. Among them, Picasso's paintings are very worth seeing. This abstract work is a new fantasy. Here, I would like to share with you the must-see attractions and travel notes of a one-day tour in Madrid.

Madrid Palace 1

The third largest palace in Europe is well preserved, beautifully decorated and bears a strong imprint of the times.

In addition, what impressed me most about the closure of official activities was that there was no free visit before the closure in the Raiders. The staff said that it is the right of the EU to visit freely. Asians don't. The problem is that this explanation cannot be found at the meeting! I also asked when this regulation was made, thinking that it may have just been implemented. As a result, people say it has always been like this!

Almost all palaces in the west are must-see places for tourists. They don't have much interest in western culture, but because they like Madrid, Real Madrid and the Bernabeu, and I love dogs, I think those palaces must be visited. I think Madrid is the best place. Get off the plane and go directly to the reserved hotel. The hotel is not far from the Sun Gate and the Palace, both within walking distance. It is also super close to the subway station. The hotel is a hotel called Voda, which can be booked. The subway in Madrid is also very convenient. One-day tickets can run all day, which is very economical and not tiring. The subway can reach several of our scenic spots. Besides, the palace is very luxurious. We rented a Chinese translator, listened to the explanation and visited it very carefully. This requires tickets. I booked two tickets online before I went, which is very convenient. You can enter directly by putting the QR code into your mobile phone. Madrid is incredible for no reason. We caught up with the hottest time, the high temperature of 39 degrees, but our enthusiasm for visiting was still very high. The appearance of the palace is square and magnificent, and there are countless royal articles such as gold and silver utensils, paintings, porcelain and tapestries in the palace. It is a representative cultural relic of Bourbon dynasty and one of the best in European palaces. Now, this palace has become a museum. What I am most proud of is that there are many China elements in it. The palace is very big, it takes a long time to walk around, and the armory can be visited, but the management here is very strict, so there are not many photos left.

Madrid is a busy but a bit dirty city. The square is a little dark, and the ground looks like coal cities everywhere. However, the Madrid Palace is not bad and worth visiting. /kloc-people aged 0/6 to 25 can buy half a ticket. Meeting a liar in Madrid proves that I don't have enough life experience. At the end of July, the sun was burning at five or six o'clock in the afternoon. My daughter and I went back to rest to avoid the sun peak. At seven o'clock, we went out refreshed. At eight o'clock, when we crossed the street on our way back, we met two well-dressed white people across the street. Men are in their forties and women are in their twenties. They look like tourists. After passing us by, they went back to ask if there was any Chinese food nearby. Then he said that he had been to China, Peking and Shanghai, occasionally spoke broken Chinese, and asked about the exchange rate of China with a harmless expression. He smiled and pointed to the boutique 7788, which is only one step away, and said that he would take us in. Because he wants to maintain the friendly image of China people, my daughter and I always answer with a smile. The woman didn't know what to say to her daughter and took her to the front. The man kept asking about the exchange rate and occasionally said a word or two in Chinese. Finally, he said that he wanted to see what the RMB was like. Because there are cameras everywhere in the boutique, I took out my wallet and showed it to him. He talked about the exchange rate. At the same time, he took out 100 euros from his wallet and took the money from my wallet, as if it were euros against RMB. When I look at my money, I am very alert. He immediately put the money in my wallet, and I immediately put it in my bag to find my daughter nervously. He kindly took me there. After finding her, they asked about my daughter's wallet. We said that I always felt something was wrong along the way. After a few minutes, I remembered to look at the money in the supermarket. If 300 euros disappeared, I never thought how he took it away quickly. Although there are cameras in the store, it is too late for the police to adjust. I will go to Barcelona early the next morning, and there are very few employees in Spain who can speak English. On second thought, I'd better forget it. Liars have many tricks.

2. litchi park

There is a statue of fallen angels in the park, which is one of the few devil statues in the world.

entrance ticket

Free, cruise for 45 minutes /4 euros.

Business?Hours?

6: 00 to 24: 00 (May to September); 6: 00-23: 00 (65438+1October-April of the following year)

When I first heard about Lichi Park, I always thought it was a big Shanghai. I didn't know until I arrived that the characteristics of each park attraction were different. I like glass houses best. They are really beautiful.

Litchi Park is the largest and most beautiful royal garden in Madrid, and now it is the favorite leisure place for Madrid people. The pools, fountains, gardens, sculptures and lawns here are all very beautiful. Boating and picnicking are the most leisure ways here. You can't miss it in Madrid. Boating on the lake and seeing the beautiful scenery and people around it are really comfortable. Last time I went to a travel company, everything was customized, from insurance tickets to hotels, to tickets for tourist and traffic attractions. I will also give you an electronic tour guide. All foreign countries can navigate in Chinese! All-weather remote help is so sweet, even if the voice is blocked, you can translate it by taking a photo or sending a voice! This is also a lovely name. It's called frog trip.

It's ten minutes' walk from our apartment to litchi park, which is an open scenic spot and doesn't need tickets.

This park has a large area with two artificial lakes. Large artificial lakes can be used for boating, but few people play in winter. There are many green plants and flowers in the garden, especially trees of various shapes, which are suitable for taking all kinds of beautiful photos.

Like other parts of Spain, all kinds of sculptures are indispensable.

The glass palace is undoubtedly the most beautiful scenery in the garden. The surrounding and dome are made of glass, which is particularly transparent. There are many carvings and colorful murals on the external wall columns.

There are some mandarin ducks and turtles in the artificial lake in front of the glass palace, which brings vitality to this place.

Visiting the indoor furniture exhibition left a deep impression on me. The grotesque furniture in it doesn't seem to be used by people, just as works of art for people to watch. It takes 2 hours to play.

3. Bernabeu Stadium

The home of Spanish football club Real Madrid, one of the most famous football fields in the world.

Business?Hours?

The stadium is open to the public every day except 65438+February 25th and 65438+1October 60th.

The opening hours of non-competition days are10: 00-19: 00; The opening hours of public holidays are 10:30- 18:30.

On the competition day, the whole tour will be open until 5 hours before each competition. After that, until 3 hours before the start of the game, you can only visit the best club area, D 'Stefano memorial area, trophy area and panoramic exhibition area of the stadium in the historical exhibition hall. Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, the home of Real Madrid cf, is also a five-star football stadium of UEFA. Although I am not a qualified fan, visiting the stadium in Madrid is the most important place in my trip, and there is no one. The subway in Madrid is easy to ride. Get off at Santiago Bernabeu Station on line 10. When I was on the Raiders before, I was inexplicably excited to see the name of this station, transliterated as Bernabeu. I didn't sleep well the night before. I also booked an e-ticket online in advance, and I can visit Area B directly. Visitors can directly enter the top-floor visit area through the escalator, overlooking the entire Bernabeu Stadium. Unfortunately, the lawn of the stadium was being renovated and maintained that day. The whole stadium is khaki, but this can't hide the grandeur of the stadium. The stadium records the glory of Real Madrid and various trophies. I believe that fans who like Real Madrid will come soon. In addition to visiting the stands, you can also visit the players' passage, rostrum, bench and players' rest area. The stadium is very humanized, and it is regular from the stands up and down. Unfortunately, I didn't watch a Real Madrid game in the offseason. Looking forward to the next time.

Although I am a Barcelona fan, I really have to obey the Bernabeu. The trip to the stadium is better than Camp Nou, but not as good as the San Siro. The travel experience is so good.

From the museum, from the introduction of the team history to the trophy exhibition, to the mixed mining area of the pre-match lounge and press conference, you can even sit on the chairs of coaches and benches. The route arrangement is too reasonable to meet the tourists' mentality.

Envy real Madrid fans.

My friend recommended me to book this trip at home in advance. It was arranged by a free custom company. They have local travel experts to plan the trip according to my requirements. And all-day online help. I can't read street signs. Take a picture and translate it for me. It's called frog trip.

4. Prado Museum

The most comprehensive and authoritative art museum that collects Spanish paintings, especially Goya's works.

entrance ticket

Ordinary ticket 14 euro, which can be purchased in advance at the ticket office or online; Tickets plus museum lectures are 23 euros, which can be purchased in advance at the ticket office or online, 7 euros for EU citizens or youth card holders over 65 years old, and 20 euros for two people a year.

Business?Hours?

10: 00 to 20: 00 (Monday to Saturday); 10:00- 19:00 (Sundays and holidays)

1 October 1, May1,February 65438+25.

65438+February 24th and 3 1, 65438+1October 6th 10:00- 14:00. Stop selling tickets 30 minutes before closing, and start clearing the scene 10 minutes in advance. You need to buy tickets all day in advance. It's horrible to line up at the scenic spots in Spain. Be careful not to take the wrong picture. There is a way to buy tickets. After booking tickets online, you can queue up for security check directly. After you go in, you can come out and go in. But you have to tell the doorman that they can say yes and come back soon. All museums are divided into permanent museums and temporary special exhibition halls. Some special exhibition halls need to buy extra tickets. When you book online, you are sure that what you bought is the most complete and expensive. When you went, it happened to be a series of tears exhibited by Bos.

Prado Museum is considered as one of the greatest museums in the world. The usual admission fee is 16 Euro, Monday to Saturday 18: 00 to 20: 00, Sundays and festivals 17: 00 to 19: 00, and visitors are free, but visitors only include permanent exhibitions. People like us who don't know much about this are enough to see it.

Our free visit that day started at 18:00. Because there were too many visitors, there was a real queue at 5: 00. We planned to arrive at 5 o'clock, but it was too late. We arrived at 5: 30, and there was already a long queue. Fortunately, the first batch of people released quickly when it was open, and then the speed began to slow down, so if we line up there at five o'clock, the first batch will definitely get in. We missed it and waited a long time to get in.

However, as others have said in their travel notes, it doesn't matter how long you wait in line in Spain. Why? Because there are so many handsome guys, one left and one right, you can catch one with one hand when you come and go. It's your turn to watch.

It's really interesting to put all backpacks over 40x40 in. People who don't understand art will feel very shocked. Just because of physical strength, we usually come out after visiting, so we didn't rent a tour guide.

5. Taiyangmen Square

There is a famous sculpture of a bear eating grapes, which is a symbol of Madrid and one of its symbols.

This is recognized as the central point throughout Spain. I'm used to having a figure statue in every square. The protagonist of Sun Gate is Carlos III, who is the best king in Madrid's mind and is called "the greatest mayor". However, his limelight was overwhelmed by the strawberry bear and the zero starting point here, and few passing tourists noticed him.

Before 9 o'clock, there were few people in Taiyangmen Square, and the activity time of tour groups was basically after 9 o'clock. If you want to take a photo with the strawberry bear, the symbol of Madrid, please remember to come before 9 o'clock. The sculpture in the corner of the square is really more emotional.

Return to Madrid from Toledo, and come out of the subway station is Sun Gate Square. Sun Gate Square is located in the center of Madrid, which is semi-circular with ten streets extending radially outward. Taiyangmen Square is the activity center of citizens, with people coming and going and people buzzing. There is a simple circular flower bed in the center of the square, where some citizens and tourists sit and rest.

Eating bear grapes and Carlos III's sculptures attract tourists to stop and take pictures.

In front of a performance band with organ, violin and trumpet, there are always many people around. At the end of each program, band members wear hats to collect money from tourists. It's voluntary anyway. Give it if you want, and it doesn't matter if you don't give it.

There are also some real-life sculpture performances in the square, and you have to pay for taking photos with them.

Taiyangmen Square is also a commercial center, surrounded by commercial shops. The ten streets radiated by the square are all commercial streets, and the famous Inges Department Store is nearby.

Four o'clock in the morning, sleepless. Just get up, take a hot bath, make yourself a fairly rich breakfast, drink coffee and listen to the wind outside the window.

Like a woman, I tried on several suits. When you are satisfied, take your packed things and run around the house. Anticipating the cold in Madrid, the wind in Barcelona at six o'clock in the morning feels a little cold.

Others go out early in the morning and drive by against the wind. In winter, there is not much difficulty for people with ideals. Perhaps this is the most important moment in my life and I should cherish it. I walked and thought. After all, I missed too many opportunities. If I do it again, I will cherish it.

I want to sleep on the train, but I can't sleep with my eyes closed. I listened to the classical music played on the train and looked at the beautiful scenery in the East outside the window. I was a little touched for a moment.

Unknown, for nothing else, as a creature who doesn't know music, he is so fascinated by classical music.

Guernica: Picasso's works.

I can't remember how many times I have been to Madrid. Like many capitals, Madrid did not leave a good impression on me. Tourists from China often ask me what Madrid is like. I responded with the same answer: Madrid has nothing but museums and palaces.

Queen Sofia Art Center in Madrid

Maybe it's my prejudice. After all, it is not surprising that it snowed in winter or the ground temperature exceeded 40 degrees Celsius in the dog days of summer, which is consistent with my experience in Beijing. Once, I went straight through Madrid and didn't want to go in. After a night in the suburbs, I returned to Barcelona in the Mediterranean sunshine.

But I still remember the first time I went to Madrid, with my former colleagues in China. We took the overnight train, so there is poetry to prove it.

After visiting Madrid, several of us are going to visit Toledo, the former capital of Spain. Actually, this is not true. It mainly depends on whether you are on the side of visigoths and Spanish Catholic Zionism or Muslim caliphate. For the former, the capital of the former is naturally Toledo, while for the latter it is Cordoba.

When I got off the train and saw a mountain city surrounded by water on three sides, I had an inexplicable love for Toledo. We walked along the moat outside the mountain, like hiking, and finally walked from the back mountain to the city center.

Torredo outer city

There were not many tourists from China in Toledo at that time. What we saw was a group of old Japanese people with gray hair taking pictures in front of Toledo Cathedral. However, I always associate the shallow sunshine in front of the church here with a poem written for an old friend and call it:

A faint sunshine.

After Toledo, all my former colleagues returned to China, leaving me alone.

I decided to look at segovia in Linda's Spanish travels.

In segovia, I can't find a picture of wandering painters painting for tourists in their books, where sunshine and shadows alternate.

On the contrary, what I remember best is that when I was hungry, I ate the most delicious pizza in a pizza shop, and I am still a loyal customer of this shop.

Roman aqueduct in Seville

Probably like Yu's la rambla in Barcelona, every time I pass by, I won't feel deeply disappointed, even if I have a little hypocritical pity. So what? A trip is always related to a person, and a city is never related to our own experience.

I didn't go to see the palace in Madrid that time, but I don't regret it. Apart from classicism in oil paintings, I have always resented the symmetry, neatness and meticulousness of classical architecture. Since Greece, the (neo-) classical style has been sought after by totalitarians. /kloc-from ancient Rome to Paris, from London to Moscow, from France to Spain in the 0/9th century.

But the two museums in Madrid are my favorites. Prado and Sophia have collected all the works of Spanish painters whose names you know and know, whether they are hand-drawn drafts in their youth or cynical works in their desolate old age.

In the end, the train bound for Madrid with confidence did not take me to my ideal destination.

However, why should we care about one or two trains that are not on time? After all, you don't want to get on the snow country train that never gets off.
