The next city on my pilgrimage to Peru was Madrid. I spent a total of one day in the capital of Spain, so far too little to even roughly get to know all the attractions. I must admit that I did not like the city. It overwhelmed with the enormity of monumental architecture, giving the impression of being inaccessible. On the other hand, my most pleasant memories are visiting the Prado Museum. The opportunity to admire the masterpieces of Bosch, Memling, Titian, Rubens, Velazquez or Goya was a great experience for me.
