3. Plaza Mayor

Madrid is a city of many squares, plazas and parks – but none are quite like the Plaza Mayor. Sitting right in the heart of old Madrid, not only is it one of the city's oldest and biggest – it is probably its most breath-taking. Built to a design of 16th century artist Juan de Herrera, it was the 1790 reconstruction by Juan de Villanueva that stood the test of time (two other efforts burned down in great fires). But what all the designs shared, and what makes the Plaza Mayor so special, is its four-sided, three-storey high wall of arcaded housing – ringed by balconies, topped by towers, and painted with bright murals.

4. Puerta del Sol

Madrid lies dead-centre in the middle of Spain – and the Puerta del Sol lies dead-centre in the middle of Madrid. It's here that Spain's map-makers and road-builders placed their starting-mark, to be used for counting distances around the country. But the Puerta del Sol isn't just about geography and maps – there are other reasons why this square is considered the focal point of the country. Meetings, celebrations and marches are naturally drawn here. Over the last few years, it has been the rallying point for Spanish protests over the global recession and Euro-crisis.

5. National Prado Museum

Madrid's Prado Museum can count itself in an elite handful of global art museums, with a collection as famed for its quality as it is for its quantity – particularly when it comes to the Renaissance and Classical paintings of Europe. Works by Hieronymous Bosch, Rubens, Botticelli, van Dyck and Rembrandt hold pride of place, in a collection that ranges from the 12th to 19th centuries. Take a count, and you'll find over 7,000 paintings, 1,000 sculptures, and 13,000 prints and drawings housed here. Naturally, the works of Spanish artistic genius feature most prominently, with the Prado having world's most comprehensive collections of artists like Goya and Diego de Velázquez.

6. El Retiro Park

Long a preserve of royalty, El Parque de Retiro is where the Habsburgs, Europe's most powerful monarchs, came to play. Its giant pond hosted mock naval battles, its formal gardens saw elaborate and extravagant plays. Now it's the place you come to, to picnic, promenade and ponder – and maybe push the paddle-boat out, onto the waters of the Estanque del Retiro.

7. Royal Palace of Madrid

If you could measure a royal palace by floor space, then Madrid's Palacio Real would come out on top. With 3,400 rooms, it's easily the largest in Europe. But the Royal Palace has more than size to commend it. There are the cool glades of the Sabbatini Gardens, the intricate formality of the Plaza de Oriente, which opens out on to the Royal Theatre, and the elegant grandness of the Plaza de la Armería, facing onto the Almudena Cathedral.

8. Plaza de España - Princesa

Plaza de España, sitting at the end of the Gran Via on the north-west side of Madrid's old town, has something to bring tourists in by the bus load – a photo-opportunity with Don Quixote. It is here that the most famous monument to Spain's most famous author, Miguel Cervantes, was erected in 1930. But it's not the granite statue to him around which the sightseers throng. Instead it's the bronze of Don Quixote – lance-in-hand and ready to tilt at the next windmill – that draws the crowds.

9. Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía

The Reina Sofía lies at the southern tip of Madrid's Golden Triangle of Art, just off the Paseo de Prado. Unlike its fellow temples to the arts, the Thyssen-Bornemisza and the Prado, however, this centre of Spanish contemporary art is not in a purpose-built museum – but in a hospital. The patients are long gone (the hospital closed in 1969), and its 17th century frame has now been transformed into a striking modern art museum. Sharp-cut glass elevators slice up its reworked front façade. Inside, the corridors and open-plan atriums are stalked by the best in contemporary and post-modern art – schools that Spain's 20th century artists had a large hand in shaping.
