Madrid Magic ~ Suddenly Missing You 💖

Of all my European travels last year, one place stole my heart completely— Madrid, the soul of Spain. Sunshine bathes this city in a lazy yet fiery glow 🌇. Watch raw Flamenco, wander Gothic alleyways, lose yourself in the Prado Museum, and picnic at Cerro del Tío Pío as the sun dips—"Before Sunset" vibes! At the plaza, a violin grandpa taught us: "Ames quien ames, Madrid te quiere." ("Whoever you love, Madrid loves you.") So warm, so Spanish! 💃❤️ 🌳 How to Get to Madrid ✈️ From China: Direct flights from Shanghai (cheapest) or Europe stopovers. 🚄 From Barcelona: Book high-speed trains on Omio (save $$$!). 🚇 City transport: Grab a Metrobus card (metro + bus included). 🌟 Must-Visit Spots 1️⃣ Prado Museum: The Three Graces, Las Meninas, Garden of Earthly Delights—masterpieces await. 2️⃣ Cerro del Tío Pío: Sunset spot where locals blanket the hills. Golden hour = magic! 3️⃣ Royal Palace: Baroque grandeur that takes your breath away at blue hour. 4️⃣ Plaza Mayor: Chat with street artists (if you dare! 😉). 🍽️ Foodie Hotspots ❶ Hotel Riu Rooftop: Best skyline views with sangria. ❷ Marina Ventura: Lobster paella = heaven. ❸ Caracola Madrid: Basque cheesecake so rich, so smooth. #EuropeTravel #SpainDiaries #MadridVibes #HiddenGems #Wanderlust #TravelPhotography #CityOfLight #SoloTravel
