  12. A golden triangle of art

    Madrid is slowly but surely claiming its rightful place alongside Paris, London, Florence, Amsterdam, St. Petersburg and New York as a paradise for art lovers.

Don’t try to see them all in one day — the museums are best savored as a slow gourmet meal of creativity.
