How to Save Time with Madrid Card

Madrid Card is a card, which provides convenient services for travellers who want to visit Madrid. It is activated not from the day you purchase it, but from the day you start to use it. What are the advantages of buying this card? There are a lot of advantages, but not in terms of price. I think that the card is not so cheap, but it is useful if you want to avoid queues when you visit the most important attractions in Madrid.

It includes:

• free admission to over than 50 museums and monuments such as the Prado National Museum, Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, the Reina Sofia National Museum and Royal Palace, which are often crowdy.
