Mera Madrid – More of Madrid, People and Others

Madrid is one of my favourite cities, and of course I will take you for a walk once more. Hopefully you will recognize some places but not all of them!

The terminal – walking in – had a very nice arcitechture. This place was new to me as we normally don’t go here with Iberia.

Then Madrid met us with the same happy face as usual – but people and other little friends are always new and interesting.

One of my favourite places to go is the big city parc – Retiro. The Crystal Palace is the place where interesting exhibititions are up – this time the theme was nomad tents. The artist, Federico Guzmán.

WPC : On the Way

Sometimes the way is more interesting than the final goal or end of destination.

Reina Sofia in Madrid is a modern museum containing among other famous works of art – Picasso’s Guernica. On the way to the painting, we walked in the beautiful, lofty corridors of the former hospital. The vaults and ceiling works of art in themselves.

Home in Sweden again, and on my way to an ordinary dog walk, Looking out the window I realize that on the way there is a stone wall clad in bright green ferns and snow white meadow saxifrage. I just had to stop for a photo…

So, don’t hesitate to look out the window, up in the ceiling or down on the floor – On the Way there are treasures waiting for you!

Travel theme: Modern

The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, or Queen Sofía Museum,  is Spain’s national museum of 20th-century art. Formerly an 18th century hospital, but was renovated into a modern museum situated near the Atocha station in Madrid. It was officially inaugurated on September 10, 1992,

The museum is mainly dedicated to Spanish art. Highlights of the museum include excellent collections of Spain’s two greatest 20th century masters, Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dalí. Even if Dali´ is my personal favourite, the most famous masterpiece in the museum is Picasso’s painting Guernica.

In this picture is one of the elevators at the entrance to the Sabatini building.
