The Prado of course seems to be the main attraction in terms of the galleries, if the crowds are anything to go by. But even in late September crowds are in all the galleries. This is expected. But you would gain by visiting, even if you are not a regular gallery visitor. I saw two temporary exhibitions both giving a different slant to the main artists presented from the Canon of art but also many Spanish artists not seen by me before. I also saw a glowing and familiar work by Fra Angelico that had recently undergone an extensive conservation process. There was an excellent video, in a comfy little theatre, describing the process. This was a highlight on this occasion. An exhibition on Ballenciaga’s dress designs and their, at times, seemingly tenuous relationship to paintings he encountered from an early age was a timed exhibition due to the extensive interest. The idea must have undergone extensive research. It was also a new slant on my experiences in many galleries.

It was our first time at the museum and we loved it ! First we went to the temporary exhibition and then we headed to the main museum which is huge. We spend more than 2 hours and we didn't finish seeing it. The ticket on the other hand, supposed to be a skip-the-line ticket, but it was just for the ticket desk...which we had to go anyway to get a physical ticket in order to enter the museum - so instead of skip-the-line we had a normal ticket.

Show was booked for 7.30 pm but only food was served till 8.30pm and once show started , we were spell bound. All three dancers were good. Finale by male dancer was electrifying and he was virtually doing endurance dance and was profusely sweating but still going strong. An explanation about songs and dance in English would help tourists to appreciate theme of dance and songs better. I would recommend this show to my friends and tourists

Everything was perfect. From the moment we entered they welcomed us very warmly. The theater is small and cozy. From the first second till the end of the performance it was breathtaking. They love what they do and you can feel it in all emotions they share with the public and between them on the stage. I really recommend it, and I'm sure you'll love it :)

So happy we booked this tour of the Reina Sofia. Paola was such a great tour guide. She helped us understand so many of the abstract pieces and provided information that we would remember and appreciate. She was super sweet and friendly. Made the entire experience 1000 times better.
