Time Out Shortlist Madrid 1st edition

Famed for its wild nights and lazy days, Madrid provides a whole lot more, whether your interests lie in spectacular opera productions or chirpy folkloric zarzuela, in cutting-edge cuisine or ancient, tiled tabernas, in designer-shoe shopping or mooching around flea markets. Written by resident journalists,Time Out Shortlist 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, as well as where to stay and how to escape the city heat. Time Out Shortlist Madrid is the essential companion to this most quintessentially Spanish of cities, with its famed trio of art palaces, its perfectly preserved taverns, its traditional fiestas and its riotious nightlife. Flamenco, film and football are also covered, alongside lodging, dining, museum, partying and shopping recommendations by local journalists.
