Amazing Place
All I can say is that I was in a room alone with Goya and Saturn Devouring his Son on a lucky day and time when it wasn’t so busy. I went back a few times just to sit with the art of Goya and take it in. Not to mention bosch, el greco, velasquez and other artists works. So moving; so awe-inspiring; so mysterious. I can’t imagine there is a better place on earth to visit a great collection of Spanish and other important European works of art. There are also other great museums in Madrid, but the Prado is absoultely the best. I can’t wait to go back to it.

A review of this place: The best museum in Europe.
It’s not hyperbole, it’s true. I still have my picture postcard of a tiny El Greco painting bought in the gift shop and remember the big statues of Velazquez and Goya that sit outside the entrances of the museum. Go see the Black paintings and purchase a little guidebook from the vending machine – they come in a ton of languages. Good place to seek respite from the glaring Spanish sun. Free on Sundays?

A review of this place: Be prepared
El Prado is one of the big museums, you will never manage to see in one day. Think first about what you want to go to see and than try to locate the paintings in the rooms. The entrance is on the side of the museum. On Sunday it’s free but crowded. On Monday it is closed.
