|  | Modern Madrid is one of the youngest cities of Spain. It has got its modern appearance with the result of significant reorganizations of XVII-th and XIX-th centuries. That is why its lay-out is regular and clear. |
| Madrid - Prado - El Greco |
|  | The city is extended from the south to the north along green hills, where the narrow river Mansares flows. Multikilometer prospectus Paseo de la Castellana connects southern and northern areas. On the southern end of city there is the railway station Atocha. There is the railway station Chamartin on the northern end of the city. The most interesting for tourists places are situated in the south. These are the main museums of Madrid - Prado, the Center of the Queen Sofia (Sofiadu) and Tissen Bornemis collection. |
