City Review: Madrid

Published by

travelux Madrid is the capital of Spain and not only a popular touristic destination, but also important when it comes to business purposes. Especially the Town Hall and Palacio Real are impressive, but the city has a lot to offer in general. Our city review shows you what we discovered in Madrid! First, our way led us past the National Museum and National Library. The National Library of Spain was founded in 1712 and is thus older than 300 years!

Struggling to decide where to go next or where to pop on your never ending bucket list?

Vista House was built in 1917 and is open daily, providing information and a place for visitors to stop and rest along the Columbia River Highway. From here, you can catch some great views of the Columbia River before heading further. I picked up a few souvenirs and some iced tea and then headed down the road in my silver rental hatchback to the first waterfall along the way – Latourell Falls. I followed the short uphill path to the lower falls but you can also keep hiking farther up. Read more…
