  • Tapas are the famous Spanish Hor'deuvres that everyone eats. Madrid has them all over the place. They come in small portions or larger portions. So you can order half or fill Racions. The larger order can make a light meal. Many people go to different Tapas Bars trying different Tapas. Examples can be olives, Calamare Frtos (Squid) or Albondingas (Meatballs). One cannot go to Madrid or Spain for that matter without trying Tapas.

     I spent a couple of days in Madrid, but didn't see the Temple of Debod - very strange sight to see in Spain!!

     Stephen, this is a very interesting and informative group of pages concerning Madrid. I, too, loved the Prado Museum...one of the greatest. Wish I had taken the bus tour. Thanks for the tour.

     I lived in Madrid over 20 yrs ago and was very impressed at their Public Transportation. Glad to hear it's still so good! Hey, I'm originally from LI too!
