Madrid, Time Out (10th ed. Apr. 18)

The Time Out Madrid guide covers the latest openings and trends in Spain's most vibrant city, while guiding readers round the places that have always marked the capital as unique: the triumvirate of world-class art galleries; bars and clubs where you can dance until dawn; decades-old family-run restaurants, and cocktail bars once frequented by Hemingway and his starlet friends. Practical matters from transport to etiquette are explained, and various features cover the historical and cultural aspects that define the city, from its architecture to its cinematic tradition. Picturesque towns and cities a mere train ride away, such as Segovia, Aranjuez and Toledo, are also covered.
