If you’re planning on a trip to Madrid, Spain, you won’t want to miss a chance to tour the newest museum in Madrid, Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza. The name may baffle and confuse you, but there is nothing confusing about this art lover’s paradise. This museum is vast with paintings collected over many generations. This wealthy family that owned this collection unknowingly had the start of the one of the greatest art collections in the world.

You won’t believe how old some of the exhibits are as you walk through the newest in architectural standards the Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza has to offer. The marble floors shine with elegance along with the walls that are salmon colored to give the exhibits plenty of light. A piece of sheer beauty, this new addition consists of 86,000 square feet of space. You may want to make a reservation for the day to view all there is to see. Once you’re inside, you won’t want to leave until you’ve see it all. I often leave my job at a nearby bar to visit the museum during my lunch hour.
