You'd be hard-pressed to find a more comprehensive, engrossing, and just plain fun-to-read guidebook than the Eyewitness Travel Guide: Madrid. Known for their eye-catching design, the Eyewitness city guides are practically spilling over with all sorts of useful information, and the Madrid version is no different. You'll find three-dimensional drawings, floor plans, and detailed neighborhood maps, as well as timelines and charts. There's even a map of the Metro. Broken down into four sections--"Introducing Madrid," "Madrid Area by Area," "Traveller's Needs," and "Survival Guide"--this book provides a complete picture of the city. Readers will especially love the hundreds of color photos showing everything from the city's famous plazas to a pitcher of sangria; the street-by-street illustrated city walks (Old Madrid, which takes in the Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayer, looks especially enchanting); the room-by-room explanations of the Palacio Real and Prado Museum; and, of course, the best places for tapas (Taberna del Foro is one). By the time you're finished with this book, you may know more than the locals. --Jill Fergus |

Famed for its wild nights and lazy days, Madrid provides a whole lot more: spectacular opera productions and chirpy folkloric zarzuela; cutting-edge cuisine and ancient, tiled tabernas; designer shoe shopping and strolling around flea markets. Written by resident journalists, Time Out Madrid also covers the artistic jewels housed in the Prado, Thyssen, and Reina Sofia, as well as the etiquette of watching a bullfight or joining in with a flamenco performance. Special sections of this seventh edition include “In the Frame” (the intriguing stories behind some of the city's best-known paintings), “Sophisticated Snacking” (where to find gourmet tapas and wine-lists to match), “Winding Down” (detailing the yoga centers, spas, and Turkish baths), and “Up, Up and Away” (climbing, skiing, and hang-gliding within reach of the city). |
