Everytime we're go here, they have an interesting exhibits, this time Lucian Freud. The Carmen Bornemisza gallery is also great. One of my favourite art museums in Europe

An unforgettable experience. The building is precious, right at the center of Madrid in a sunny day you can enjoy every corner of this place. The history and the art that hangs in the walls are priceless. The beauty of every painting is complemented with a great space, amazing stuff and soft lighting that will transport you straight to America in the 80’s or a canal in Venice, or maybe a garden where Monet will ensure you never want to leave. This is the best museum I have ever been, not only for the art but for how comfortable and easy is to move around. I paid £18 with £5 towards the audioguide. Worth every penny.

We had a wonderful time here. They have a huge permanent collection. Plus we enjoyed seeing 2 of the temporary exhibits. The Ukrainian show was quite impressive. By chance, we went on one of the free days, the line was incredibly long, but moved incredibly fast and we had no problem getting in. The staff was very nice. Well worth the visit
