When we want to try a new restaurant, we look for pictures of its food online. We do the same when renting an apartment or buying clothes. Why not do the same to get to know a city? This photo gallery gives you the chance to experience Madrid through pictures. Scroll down for a Madrid Tour through Sonya’s Pictures.

It looks like November was the sunset month. And Sonya does look like a real madrileña, doesn’t she?

A must-do thing in Madrid is to walk through its parks like El Retiro.

However, there are so many more parks to visit like El Capricho. Why not read while laying down in one of these green areas?

Oh, and something important to decide is where to eat. Of all the different places Sonya visited, she really liked this beautiful terrace. And, once we have gotten some food in our system, it is time to wander around!
