Reina Sofia 2.
by ger4444
Where you can find works of Goya in the Prado, here you can find works that represent a new area in Spanish painting. Because after a period of creativity in the 18 th century spanish painting went into sleep. not before the beginning of the 20 th cenury it came alife again. Painters who represent this awakeing peiod are Zuloaga and Anglada-Camarasa. yet, more important is Solana (to be found in room 2) his favouite subject was the Fiestas and the people in his hometown Madrid. Influenced by Goya he painted Café de Pombo and the procession of death. Café de Pombo. a scenery of intellecuals in a former Madrid pub.

REBAJAS únicas
by Beach_dog about El Corte Ingles
A country wide department store selling just about everything you could need. Stores in most Spanish cities and at least four in the Madrid area. Go during the sales in January, discounts on many goods from 20 to 60 %. A good time to get those designer brand clothes at big discount prices.
Cinema in Original Version
by Lorro about Yelmo Cine Ideal
I read somewhere that Spaniards go to the movies more than people in many other countries. So its not a NON cultural thing to do. And if you want to see Original version movies (including English) you can check this place out. As a cinema its ok, nothing special but serves its purpose. For the Americans, no, butter is not available on the popcorn in Spain. :( Its near Sol and easy to find too. And has a nice facade.
It costs about 5.80 Euros and on non holiday Mondays its 4.30.
